The whisper from Anthony Hudson last night on SEN is that Wilbur will make his debut this week.

Interesting

Would think if true, he'd replace Vickery who really struggled with the tempo yesterday against the really BIG boys  ;D

Bring him on I reckon. Let's have a look at the kid. And if he were to come in it'd have to be for Oakley-Knickerwetter who shouldn't even have been out there in the first place. I thought Vickery was okay. Does anyone remember that bit of play on the wing when he ran down the Saint player who dropped the ball like a hot potato, and the umpire balled it up. From the stoppage they went forward and goaled. Yeah,nice one. Earlier Vickery was tackled, handballed the ball away, and was pinged for holding the ball.It happened to Rance too.Anyway, I don't want this to turn into a "bad umpiring decisions" thread. I could start a 10-page thread on the bad calls that went against us last night alone.

I would like to see Vickery kept in for the experience, as RR said put Post in instead of JON, I know we are tanking but JON is just to painful to watch.

As for the umpiring yes we better not go there as we will look like sore losers as shockingly one sided as it was.

Why not? We had 4 free kicks after 1/4 time, 3 of those in the last quarter.

Hopefully he will.
Would love to see Vickery and Post in the same side.
I thought Vickery struggled a bit yesterday but he was playing against one of the top 2 sides for the year and that would have taught him alot. Play him against Adelaide another disciplined team and he will learn there too. I think someone like JON needs to get dropped. Vickery Post Rance Riewoldt should play for the rest of the year regardless of form and results. It will be the steepest learning curve.

Look at the Saints in 2001 and 2002 copped some frightful beltings playing the kids but by the end of 2003 they were ready to take the next step.

McRae EOTT report on Post:

"Played clearly his best VFL game to date. Picked up 20 possessions (11 kicks, 9 handballs) and took nine marks, five of them contested, in a variety of roles across the ground. Is playing VFL football at an AFL standard."

Tigers name another cub (RFC)

Tigers name another cub

THREE weeks, three debutants.

That's the scenario for Richmond coach Jade Rawlings, with Jayden Post into the side this week, following Ty Vickery and Jarrod Silvester who had their first cracks in the past two rounds.

Post was Richmond's second selection (26 overall) in the 2008 NAB AFL Draft and is a key-position player, who used his athleticism to take the most contested and uncontested marks in the TAC Cup last year.

Richmond football manager Ross Monaghan said Post had quickly worked his way up to the AFL.

"He started off the season slowly – first year in the system – and had to work his way through playing some games with the Coburg reserves," he told richmondfc.com.au.

"He did well enough at that level for the selectors at Coburg to think he deserved a game in the seniors. He's been consistent for a few weeks in a row, and last week he had a breakout game with Coburg.

"In a side which was struggling, last week he really put his hand up, worked really hard, and has been rewarded with selection this week."

Monaghan said the 18-year-old was able to play in a range of positions.

"He was originally drafted as a tall defender who could also play forward, but he's also played on the wing with Coburg," he said.

"So he's had a range of experiences and each one he's handled really well and we've been really pleased with his progress."

Not a too bad debut so far. He's a least one positive. Reading the play well and getting the ball on the spread on the way out of the backline.
