Some of these selections are not good enough to be mediocre.
For me mediocre is someone who could string together a decent amount of tests or be recalled over their career but never really cement their position, or simply doing just enough not to get dropped after a few games.

Picking someone who only played a couple of tests isn't a reflection of someone who is mediocre really...they were **** imho.
