What's with this 'played ok', or 'was serviceable' bullcrap. He played very well and should have been given many more games this year. Shouldn't have even been dropped after Round 1 imo.

Seriously if you don't know why he was dropped after round 1 then you really need to get a copy of the game and watch it very closely. Because it is blatantly obvious, there for the world to see why he was dropped

But no

Terrific, just terrific

Part of development mate. Playing on a 201cm jumping forward isn't easy. 7 goal loss, 3 goals to hampson. Not as bad as it sounds. He got caught by Gartless once. That's happened to alot of players too. How many times has Shoenmarkers been smashed like that in the last 18 months? 10 plus times. He's still getting games. Post has looked reasonably good in most of his richmond games apart from a couple only. The only way he'll improve is with more senior games. I'd much prefer him playing than Miller, Mcguane and Moore

Seems the acceptance of mediocrity is alive and well at Richmond.

One can only hope list managers from other clubs are as excited by what they saw from Post yesterday and we can trade him off before we're lumped with another ordinary player for 9 seasons.

You think Post should be delisted? If so, who else goes with him? We can't delist all our average players in one go. I'd prefer Post gets another crack (as long as he performs for us for the rest of the season) over quite a few others.

Your response just proves you don't know why he was dropped.

Development? Please give me a break

It had nothing to do with how many goals Hampson kicked or getting burnt off by Garlett - nothing.

As I said get a copy of the game and watch it closely and you will see the main reason and here's a hint it isn't pretty

I suppose part of it will come down to who we target in Free Agency and trade for doesn't it?

If we manage to trade for or via Free Agency get a big bodied KPD then doesn't Post become expendable?

Alternatively, who do you place more value on Griffith or Post? Because I would think both are fighting for The same list spot.

I'm rating him on yesterdays game and his other solids richmond games. If he stayed in defence for the last quarter we probably would have won the game. He had tarrant removed from the game. Smashed him while helping Rance a heap on Petrie. If you can't see that you really don't know what you're on about. You can't see crap on a replay anyway. Being at the game shows everything which is up/downfield. Rating playings on tv is the biggest mistake. First game of the year players are rusty and struggle with the pace of a first real hitout

You've got no idea what WP is on about, Madtugger. What is one thing that a bloke like Morris always brings to the table?? Give you a tip, it's something that was missing from Posty's game in a big way in round one.

Thanks Coach

If the Mad one wants me to spell it out then I will

And just one more thing Madtiger, I go to all games. So what I am talking about regarding Post in round 1 was not something I saw on the Telly but what I saw first hand on the night. The fact that 15 weeks later I still remember it as clear as if it happened 10 mins ago highlights how bad it was

iChat's how bad it was

I'll go with WP on this. First game Post was rusty? It was the first game for everyone that night.
First game for Garlett who tackled him cold in Round 1 also.

Right now Post is just an average player at best.

Posty has had poor efforts but I have seen him go back with the flighty too many times to label him as soft. At times he is (round one being a nightmare) but still think he could offer something. Frustrating player.

Is more often cold than warm let alone hot, needs to go. I don't rate him as a depth player, and right now we are scraping the barrel for depth which is why he is getting a game.
