Underrated and undervalued yet undeniable on their day. These blokes don't get the recognition they deserve but can single-handedly turn a game.
None of these players have ever earned an All-Australian cap, but their teammates must love going to war with them as some of the unheralded stars of the game.
Here are the 20 most underrated players in the AFL:
17. Lynden Dunn (Collingwood)
Lynden Dunn has found some form since his arrival at the Holden Centre. Dunn's ability toย regularly shut down the opposition's number one defender was major reason for the Pies rise up the ladder this season. Unfortunately, Dunn wont be playing finals after rupturing his ACL in round 15 against Gold Coast, tragic considering the hardship and lack of September action he experienced at the Demons.
