Every side has its stars, and with 22 players fielded out every game, not everyone gets the recognition they deserve.

We look at every team and determine who is underrated. Here are the first nine players in part one as we look at the players that have an impact that isn't necessarily marked down statistically.

4. Collingwood

John Noble

Drafted mid-season in 2019, John Noble has quickly risen the ranks at Collingwood to become a key part of the club's outfit.

The defender played five games in his first season, including the final four games of the year. Since his first year, he has only missed one game.

The soon-to-be 25-year-old has developed quickly at the Pies, providing dash and speed off half-back. He has cemented himself in a defence that has been highly touted in the years he has played.

Last season saw Noble average 18.6 disposals, 5.2 marks and 2.6 tackles.
