Quote from: MADTIGER2010 on July 23, 2012, 01:35:18 PMWhat'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 droppedBut noTerrific, just terrific

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.
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
Developing for 4.5 years? Time to cut your losses.

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.

Please give me a breakIt 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
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.

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 highiChat's how bad it was

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
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.
