Lynch !!

Didn't hear a word from these Bomber muppets after he kicked 6.

Sit back after Friday night, they will be flag favourites after beating Sydney by 33 points.
I’ve never seen such a *smile* team, get pumped up as much as they do.
 
The more the media criticise, the more the fans rally

Very positive posting in this thread now. Perhaps even more positive than when he was playing well!
 
Imagine he's hit the wall after 7 games, off the back of no preparation.
He should be now starting to build condition, and really hit his straps in the second half of the season.
 
Like Richo said tonight, apart from Cameron, name another key forward who has been in amazing form this season.

Not sure that that excuses Lynch's recent poor form
 
Lynch maybe unfit but he makes plenty of contests but spills alot of gettable marks.
Sure its a confidence thing.
When fit and ready he will be that contested mark we have been screaming out for.
 
He had 3 jumping into him all night, had *smile* to woeful delivery, and a poor team performance. Shouldve kicked 8.

And that’s the point - it was no night to make judgements on the full forward.
He’s got to be given a half chance at least to contest for the ball and that simply didn’t happen.
 
They signed him up as another Buddy but he aint another Buddy . Buddy came to Sydanee from a gun side with points on the board . Lynch from a crap side , a dodgy knee & no points on the board. Main problem at the moment with Tom is he is stand
( no Jack) alone up front. No one else there to take a big grab & take some of the pressure off him. This will continue until Jack comes back with Jack staying put & no ruck work.

Lloyd said at the end of 2016 , we need another rebuild ,

Not really someone you listen to for advice

Love that vision in the doco where end of 2016 Lloyd is carping on about how modern football has passed the out of date Hardwick's game plan by. Dimma just smiles and shakes his head at the count (and I'm not using his nickname there.... surplus o)

Who takes what Lloyd says seriously anyway?

Love that too. No respect for the count. He was an above average FF but he has been shown up in terms of his footy IQ.

He's had a few nicknames over the years. Hymie, Louganis, (Bacardi) Breezer.

Jack’s not going to be around for long. As much as Rance being out is a good rendition for the team to work on a succession plan now post Rance, I feel this is the same for the other end as well. Lynch is the mid term Lynch pin up forward and it also will help the team to work on that synergy now to get a feel for what it’s going to be like without Rance & Jack. As much as these injuries has taken its toll it’s necessary to fast track some much needed depth to cover the aging list.
 
I cant believe anyone questioning Lynch. Not only has he kicked 17 odd goals in a side where they have no idea how to kick inside 50 but he had no preseason. If that were Buddy in the same situation you would never hear the end of how well worth the deal he was.
