Lynch !!

I feel like he should have got at least some contested marks last night. Naughton didnt have any trouble.

Lynch had a lot of opportunitites last night. Thought he was a very very poor.

He wasn't triple teamed every contest like some are making out, and besides, despite what Hardwick says we pay him big money to take conteested marks, not merely bring it to ground. Soldo could do that.

I'm still a huge fan of getting him to the club, but the rubber hand act has to go.
Looks like the lack of a pre season has really caught up to him, and yet with Jack out unless he’s genuinely injured we can’t give him a rest.

What an absolute waste. ???

My thoughts exactly upon hearing what Hardwick said. I think I may have even given myself a solid facepalming!

If he is fit enough, we should be utilising his great leading and marking, to much better effect. Instead, he appears to have been told to camp in the 50 and 'bring the ball to ground'... ugh
 
Matthew lloyd has chimed in says Lynch is a liability at the tigers

We know Lynch can play. is he playing any worse the Daniher at the moment? Both coming back from long term injuries.

You can see he lacks confidence, even when he is kicking (which is a great strength) he is not confident.

He will be fine, we were always playing the long game with him

Lloyd is a clueless fool.
 
The real concern is how easily he is bumped off his line.

He'll turn it around, but really struggling ATM.

Hardwick is just easing the pressure to help his player perform. Says that about everyone when they’re a bit down.

Think he's still playing on only one good leg. Noticed he's limping. Has probably lost speed from the PCL too. Can't find separation much at all, just attracts a crowd because they all know our dumb game plan by now. Just bomb it to Tom!

We have to play him with no JR, just makes it worse.
Correct. Not jumping confidently for his marks. If Jack was fit to play Tom would be rested.

Lloyd is Just to stupid to insult let’s move on

Fly catcher. Clueless.
The kid hasn’t had a full preseason, coming off virtually a knee reconstruction.
Still kicked the 2nd highest amount of Goals.
he needs time and confidence
And he needs the MCG not playing on that *smile* hole.
 
Lynch is fighting through his recovery and trying lift his team.

May is fronting the Melbourne leadership group for being out drinking on Sunday.

Yeah righto Matt Lloyd you twat, really focusing on the big issues
 
Let's face it Tom is down on form at the moment & hopefully over time he will get better..yes there are all those things that can be said as to why he is not performing to the level he himself would want but lloyd is only saying what is true.

Yep, there can be thin skins in here. If Lynch were at Collingwood PRE would be bagging the crap out of him.
 
It really looks to me as though he is way down in confidence.

Utterly confused by the Tiger chaos method of scoring.
 
Lynch is in terrible form. Hopefully he turns it around otherwise if his current output was to stay too
Long then Lloyd might have a point.
 
Lloyd said at the end of 2016 , we need another rebuild ,

Not really someone you listen to for advice

Yes, maybe he should analyse the supposed changed culture he put in place, that the AFL invested so heavily in at Melbourne.

May is following Roos' culture precisely: accept a huge salary to come to the club and then leave the work to the others.
