Fair points Pope but to be honest with you and based on form right at the moment, I'd give Polak a run in the seniors before Post. I appreciate that Polly probably isn't in the long term plans but he he is clearly doing the right things that are being asked of him.

I cannot see it being in anyway fair to reward Post with AFL game when seems to constantly refuse to work hard (eg the 1%ers, the chasing etc) playing for Coburg

WP what's your opinion of giving Rance the spot since he's been in the best for the last three weeks and how would you play him given his experience at Coburg.

Out cotchin, nahas, vickery
In Browne, Gourdis and Morton.
Going to be a very tough game against Collingwood. Believe Rance and Polo are in the mix as well

If Nason okay he should come in at the expense of Tambling. Hope Cotchin doesn't get suspended but believe we will get screwed by the tribunal

Rance deserve another shot and i'd do that probably at the expense of McGuane or if Thursfield isn't right this week

I'd play him in defence

I appreciate his disposal and decision making at times isn't the greatest but i"ve never walked away from a game and doubted his comittment and effort ....

RICHMOND - In the Mix

The Tigers are set to lose Trent Cotchin through suspension. Coach Damien Hardwick said on the weekend that young ruckman Andrew Browne - who has had a run of sustained good form in the VFL - would play AFL again before the end of the year, and with Angus Graham and Ty Vickery being soundly beaten on the weekend, this could be his chance. Alex Rance has also continued his good form, while Mitch Morton led the scoring for Coburg with three majors.

I just read Hewitt's report on EOTT and he didn't seem to be overly gushing in his praise about Hicks, but then again, he wasn't overly positive about anyone except Browne, I thought.

It was a positive change to see EOTT updated according to the timeframes the club sprouts about.  Do we have a new communications person on board?

Agree Jack especially if Hicks plays this week against the more experienced and bigger bodies of the Pies.

I just read Hewitt's report on EOTT and he didn't seem to be overly gushing in his praise about Hicks, but then again, he wasn't overly positive about anyone except Browne, I thought.

Caro said about a month ago that our media manager Judith Donnelly was stepping down and to be replaced by Simon Matthews (from Essendon). I'm not sure if our media manager has anything to do with EOTT though.
