Could we have found ourselves another Richo?
(Unfortunately) right down to the kicking.
He loves to fly for a mark, loves a run. I hope he can get a Richo-like engine and improve his kicking.
The difference between Richo and POst now may all come down to the coachig they recieve. Richo was allowed a lot of allowances due to his amazing offensive ability that in retrospect he probably shouldn't have recieved.
Post needs to be taught to value the defensive side of the game as much as his offensive side. He needs a development/forward coach to work with his now on set shots, confidence (using the same kicking process regardless of where you are kicking for goal) and screening, blocking, shepherding and dummy leading for other forwards.
If Postie can be taught to be a team player and learn to kick the same way where-ever he goes for goal then we will have a fantastic forward on our hands.
Confidence will be a crucial part to whether he reaches his potential just like it will be for the majority of our young list.
