I agree, but (and I realise it's early days yet) Cummins is showing some promise at 13. If he goes to the Tahs, he has to compete with Horne for the spot. Cummins would just lose the spot.

Bull. I don't think he is all that rated as an outside centre. He is rated as a footballer but not in any particular position.
The most overrated is quite easily Horne due to the amount of time he is on the sidelines.

Not seen any rugby in the last 2 years?
I'll have AAC (Adam Ashley-Cooper) in my team any day of the week.

The only one of those players who is possibly better is Horne...
Mortlock is well past it... Chambers has been rubbish... and Ioane is a far better winger who does ok at Super level in the position...
AAC (Adam Ashley-Cooper) was solid at outside centre for the Wobs last year and played some great games, including MOTM against the French...
He's also played well at 13 for the Brumbies back in 2007 when Morty was injured... unfortunately he's had limited time in the position since, and although backing up as a great fullback it's in everyones best interest to see him at outside centre...

AAC (Adam Ashley-Cooper) is currently the best 13 we have in this country who is consistently fit and ready to play. Horne will undoubtedly challenge for that position, but he spends a lot of time off the paddock. Adam's form at international level last season I thought was excellent, especially on the EOYT. Overrated my arse.
From the Brumbies games I've seen this season, I don't think his own performances have been that bad. The blokes inside him haven't been brilliant and its cut down his chances. Outside centres aren't play makers.

Exactly.
He's continually supplied with rubbish ball by Giteau.
However, he still manages to make a line break, get over the advantage line, or at least collect a few defenders.
The Brumbies backline - current halves = potentially good backline.
If AAC (Adam Ashley-Cooper) sticks around he could be rewarded for it.

AAC (Adam Ashley-Cooper) is great for the Wallabies & average for the Brumbies "I love it". He scored more tries in 4 games against the All Blacks than he did the whole super 14 season in 2010.
He 's brilliant at test level & he is Australia's most prolific try scorer against the All Blacks he is the complete opposite to Matt Giteau he's quiet in the easy games & brilliant in the big games.

for me you get rated on ability and injury doesnt come into it. never understand quotes like this, he has had a bad run, but that doesnt impact his abiity and skill level. it just keeps us from seeing more of it.
quade would be the most overrated due to the fact he actually is incapable of doing half of what a footballer should be able to do.
Chambers? Morty (now)? Ioane ? All unproven for any length of time or at the top level, or past it. Horne too, for all his potential, has to become more resilient.
I agree with Slim.
I would, however, like to see AAC (Adam Ashley-Cooper) improve his game a bit by learning to offload more and be less predictable for defenders, who currently only have to guess whether he'll fend or not. A player like Conrad Smith is potentially far more dangerous.

He should stay at the brumbies. Gits will be gone next year so he'll benefit from a fly-half that doesnt crab. If he does go then i hope the tahs do go with a 12. Horne 13. AAC (Adam Ashley-Cooper) combo, sounds lethal. McCabe for 13 at the brumbies with lealifano at 15. Sounds alright to me.
