Victorian Class of 2016 under rated players?

We tend to hear of your Tom Wilsons, Jack whites and DJ's, but what Victorian players have great potential but are not recognised? What 5 would you list?

Not 2016, but 2015 Remo Simankeviscius (Melbourne). Should be in the Vic U20 team.

Mason Peatling - Dandenong
Mitch McCarthy - Melbourne/Frankston

Tim's much loved by his peers, I believe he has left the national program for now. He got recognition for his efforts at the last 18's Nationals, as did the others. He also has been at several COE camps over the years.

Seb is strong and solid and I believe is a college prospect, not sure if he has completed year 12 yet? He played Big V last season as well as VC and is working hard to improve his game.

Trent has improved heaps and got a call up to COE camp but he didn't get too many opportunities at worlds earlier this year, he will continue to improve and is a talent for sure.

Jon is a great team player, I am not sure where his basketball future lies but he gives it 110% on court and is a super athlete.

Tom may be heading to football, not really taking basketball to the next level from what I know.

I don't really know Remo, Mason or Mitch as have not seen them play much...

Mitch McCarthy - Melbourne Tigers ( ridiculously athletic and a strong spot up shooter. Also defends the rim very well )
Trent McMullen - Wodonga (very versatile, great shooter and reasonably athletic )
T
- they are the only wings that I could see that are underrated and will go big time.

That is interesting because some may consider college as a stepping stone to the big time, but each to their own. College is still pretty good if you can get there.

Solid boy (Daggers), a medium big who loves his mid range shot, has college potential for sure, just has to refine his defensive game and not get frustrated so often.

What do you mean Ha ha?
Jack White in 9 games averaged 8.6 points at 37% and 6.3 rebounds per game in the same competition (Big V Div 1. Mens 2014) I thought this was a thread about under rated players? D'Agostino is one of those.

Correct, he played with those boys but he went into school early and has just graduated year 12, unlike most of his team mates he has been doing VCE this year.

Yes, YLD1 with Supercats and looking forward to it.
