Yeah and at least Richo could actually take a contested mark. One of the best ever. Lynch is really struggling to take contested marks this year. Jack did tonight but he was playing on a second gamer. But you still gotta do it so credit to him and hopefully that goes some way to him getting his mojo back.I was getting flashbacks from the Richo 90's era - just bombing the ball in aimlessly and hoping he can pull off a contested grab. Im not sure what the answer is either. Maybe we could bring in RCD as a 2017 Townsend/Graham style pressure forward? at 189cm he could provide a x-factor 3rd tall marking presence - i really dont know
Actually, it wouldn't worry me too much if Lynch did get rubbed out. It might be force our hand to try some different tactics and strategies in the forward line; make us less predictable. Obviously Lynch near his best is a 100% staple in our side but the way he's playing at the moment I don't think we'd miss him that much. A rest could also do him good and freshen him up for the run home.
