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.

Better than his recent efforts but still nothing to make me think he will make it.How blind are you. His game was very good. You're one of those who don't want to see him play well and take his game as poor even before the game has been played

Yes, that's what I do, list my best players pre-game. His game was average and that comes directly from my post-game summation.
Well average is under rating his game

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 MooreYour response just proves you don't know why he was dropped. Development? 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 prettyI'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 hitoutCouldn't of been helping Rance to well in the last when he got his run on. Was moved forward to swap for McGuane cause he got a run onHis opponent was subbed out of the game. That's when he went forward. You notice that? Or you refuse to acknowledge it? Instead of being blind and wanting him to fail and get delisted. Open your eyes and see his attributes and see were he will improve. You don't realise how required he is. Our 3 tall defenders are rance, griff and grimes. Our 3 tall forwards are jack, vickery and ???? If one of our backs go down, Post is next in line. He's ahead of derrickx, astbury and elton as a defender for sure. While Moore, Miller, Mcguane are as good as finished so he's ahead of them too. He's also capable of playing forward. Late last year against the bombers he did just as well as Griffiths up forward but didn't kick the goals. I reckon our perfect set up would be Griffiths in defence when we play the top 8 sides and Post up forward. The top 8 sides have a big forward such as Petrie which Griff would take. Griff's pace would be handy up forward against bottom 8 sides and Post in defence. Grimes hammys aren't too reliable either so Post may be in defence more often than expected

No goals kicked on you and a poo load of spoils doesn't = an average game for a defender in my book. No errors with ball in hand either. Thought Posty was solid
i've started to have doubts about whether post would make it, but i thought his game on the weekend was a solid base to build on.still a way to go, but the jury's still out for me
