Andrew Browne tweeted this tonight:

"Disappointed with Coburg's performance. Frankston supporters were disgusting. There is no place in the game for some of the comments made."

A couple of match reports from BF:

By OzBomber:

Elton injured his ankle in the first quarter after landing awkwardly in a marking contest. Came on once or twice in the 2nd quarter but was ginger. Didn't come back out in the 2nd half. One or two weeker I think it would be.

Didnt really know who any of the other players were but Coburg gave away a few reckless 50s and Angus Graham bumped a guy high behind play. Not sure if he got reported or not. Number 51, the big Maori lad provided plenty of run but in all honesty Frankston controlled it and really should have won by more.

Report by Continstar:

We were deplorable, awful, however you want to put it, deserved to lose to sub par opposition.

No run through the midfield, without White, no one took charge in the middle, i think the most run all day from Piva Wright...how's that for desperate!!!!!

Ill-disciplined, Connors gave away 2 consecutive 50m penalties, taking us from CHB to 30m out from goal, Derickx gave one away stupidly, Matty Arnot forgot what tackling was and just tried to knock every guy out, i mean the stupidity out there from professional players was unbelievable.
Mcguane was good, but his kick outs were poor, and went missing when we needed him in the last, Griffiths did a very good job on Haretuku until the last 5 mins, and Dea was good out of defence.

O'Hanlon did little...again, Derickx was completely out of sorts up front, Graham and Browne continued to tap well but that was it, Webbers was ok, not special though, Darrou was solid until the last quarter where he turned it over at a couple of crucial moments and Jayden Post.....what a disaster.....was comprehensively beaten by a smaller opponent who outmarked him, his kicking out of defence was awful to say the least, and any signs of development were out the window, he should be back in the Coburg 2's!

Lack of intensity too, no enthusiasm or run, unlike the Frankston boys who just kept coming, and in the last quarter, i can only remember 2 inside 50s, this was a team chasing the game for most of the quarter...TWO INSIDE 50s!!!!!! you cannot win with that kind of performance!

Frankston Football Club accused of racist slurs (Herald-Sun)

Frankston Football Club accused of racist slurs

    Michelle Ainsworth
    From: Herald Sun
    April 23, 2012


A VFL club is caught up in racism allegations after fans allegedly targeted opposition players at the weekend.

An AFL-listed player accused supporters from the Frankston Football Club of making racist slurs against players from the Coburg VFL side during yesterday's match.

Richmond player Andrew Browne said on Twitter the fans made the comments to players in the quarter-time and three-quarter time huddles.

"Frankston supporters were disgusting. There is no place in the game for some of the comments made," Browne tweeted.

"Racist comments. People coming up to the huddle during the breaks having a go at individuals."

Coburg general manager Jake McCauley last night said the club had referred the matter to AFL Victoria.

"The Coburg Football Club has been in contact with the AFL Victoria, and the Frankston Football Club, regarding some concerns with supporter behaviour during today's VFL match between Coburg and Frankston," Mr McCauley said.

Frankston president John Barry said he had not heard about the allegations.

"I haven't heard anything about it at all, it's quite surprising," Mr Barry said.

So what's the issue with Post?

Date of birth: 5/12/89
Height: 194cm
Weight: 88kg
Club: Western Jets

Bio: Post is a tall, athletic key position player who can play at either end of the ground. He is good overhead, reads the game well and is a neat kick. Post won the Western Jets’ best and fairest in 2008.

http://www.afl.com.au/news/newsarticle/tabid/208/default.aspx?newsid=70183

you couldn't get a bio that was so far of the mark if you tried. Although he did win the B&F at the jets.
So was the draft insiders completely wrong or is Richmonds development department completely substandard?
The club that keeps giving.

Derrickx kicked 1 goal and apparently 'looked completely out of sorts.' He is not the answer.
Giff has been solid for a couple of weeks now. Give him a run up forward.

Derrickx has never been one of Coburgs better players in ANY game. He's 25 years old not 19. He shouldn't be getting a game unless he is dominating at VFL level.

Bring in Griff.

would love to see big Griff play I'm the big league. Already there's been plenty of young draftees picked later in the draft already cement their spot in senior teams. I know he's had his injuries but we've only seem him in the senior team on a few occassions and he looked ok.
Want to see him in and see what he's got. He will learn alot quicker too.

Was post not 19 when running around in the under 18s?
