    Yep. Listen to guitar work before Hendrix and after Hendrix.

    Absolute bullshit. Ringo is the luckiest drummer in history. He certainly had a ticket to ride on the talent of the rest of the band.

    Well, when the likes of Phil Collins. Dave Grohl, Stewart Copeland, Jim Keltner, Max Weinberg etc, call you an under-rated genius and one of the top drummers of all time, there's a pretty good chance you are.

    “Ringo is vastly underrated. The drum fills on the song “A Day in the Life” are very complex things. You could take a great drummer today and say, ‘I want it like that.’ He wouldn’t know what to do.” Phil Collins

    Yep, then there’s this which I choose to believe….

    Jimmy Page/Richie Blackmore

    Although Jimmy Page didn’t appear in three World Cups for the Kiwis, I’m not sure why you think this comparison is fair.

    Ringo isn't the most technically gifted drummer but he can play. Plenty of drummers I rate list him as a major influence. Now, Nick Mason...

    Appreciate? I assume a few of us only know one Richie Blackmore. From what you're saying he must have been great on the bus to/from the game.

    He always played the guitar on the bus if that’s what you mean

    @booboo there's definitely a joke combining the surnames somewhere there.

    Remember, this isn't about saying something is shit and another thing is great, just about the relative perceived value etc.

    I mean you've said enough stuff in this thread - something had to ring true at some point

    Gavin Henson/Tom Shanklin

    Not a good example. Shanklin’s rating is about right. For most people save for a few who still have a frap over “that” tackle, Henson’s place is also about right.

    This one should go in the Meh/Meh thread if there was one.

    He was still an underrated player imho. But feel free to add your own underrated Welsh player. Henson is the most overrated rugby player in history.
