Positive stuff, a bit of the old theory - don't think, just do. Lets hope he can he can keep it up.

Not too bad, first handball was a cracker.

Have to keep him and Vickery in for the experience regardless of how they go.

Post showed enough...

Keep him and Vickery in till the end of the year, regardless of form.  They need to aclimatise to the speed of AFL.

Agreed play both of them with Graham for the rest of the year regardless of form and results. Post showed some good signs and Vickery did some nice things too.
Hopefully Connors can be given an opportunity to string half dozen or so games at this level also as I believe he can make it if he gets his head right.

Post showed some great qualities in awareness, agility and solid mark...needs strength and experience...I liked Vickerys game has shown real improvement with signs he's starting to believe in himself at the level :thumbsup

He's already 88kg. You'd expect his AFL playing weight when he's in his 20s will be mid-90s. At 6' 5" he's going to be a handful for opposition teams playing wing or key position if his footy ability is as good as his athleticism.

Hmmm, could've posted the same thing about 16 years ago.....

A very impressive second half from Postie. The main positive to come out of today's game. Also pleasing he didn't suffer second game blues and actually improved. He looks very comfortably out there for such a young player.

Vickery's ruckwork is soft as butter. Hope this improves as he gets bigger.

If he doesnt work out as a ruckman he'll be ok as a forward anyway. Vickery will be ok.

He's a kid rucking against men, he shouldn't really be rucking in his first year anyway

Post just looked to be tossed about by the defenders today, but it was nice to see him put some tackles on.
Vickery was very exciting up forward, very encouraging.
