Loved his 200th goal. Lynch lining up, Tex standing still 25m out dead in front pointing at the big sticks, telling the ranga to kick for goal. Lynch trots in for goal and on the last step stabs a 30m bullet pass to Tex. He literally had no idea it was coming until the ball was 15m away, such is his gravitational pull
 
Lynch scrapes 45m on the run, was never any doubt. Poor defending by the Roos to allow anything other than a high ball to the hot spot, especially since they managed to remember to block Henderson from taking hand off shots from 60m.
Was telling my brother there is no way lynch kicks that goal. Way outside his range. 1min argument ensues. Then... satisfaction.
 
It's that time again! We start off the season with another eight Walker goals!



Let's go straight to the goal assists, where we have two new entrants in Ellis-Yolmen, and Tommy Lynch who somehow has never featured before, but now debuts at #30 with two assists.

Need these blokes back in the game today!!
 
Just some random facts:

Walker this week broke his previous record of consecutive games scoring atleast 1 goal - He's now bagged atleast one major in the past 13 matches in a row - breaking his previous held record of 12, which he achieved twice.

Eddie Betts is currently on a streak of 17, which is also the best of his career too (never achieved at Carlton..)


However, they are both way off the AFC record which was set by no other than Tony Modra, who had a streak of 38 consecutive games scoring atleast one goal from 93-94
 
Here we go at last - the 28th Walker video!



Ten fresh, shiny new goals to feast your eyes on! Aaand... straight onto the stats.


This time around, we welcome a newcomer to the goal assist list in Luke Brown who chips in with his first ever Walker assist. Tom Lynch skyrockets from 30th place up to 20th by doubling his assist tally with another two. After less than two seasons with the club, Eddie Betts cracks the top ten. And each of our top three continue their dominance with another assist each. Sadly, Reilly moves onto the retired list, finishing his career with 5 Walker assists.

As for the secondary assists, we welcome newcomers Ellis-Yolmen and Cameron, with two and one secondary assists respectively. Again, Reilly moves to the retired list, finishing his career as the second-best ever player at providing Walker secondary assists. Mackay joins a pack of several players on seven secondary assists. And meanwhile, Walker continues to benefit from opposition turnovers and ruck stoppages, with almost a quarter of all of his goals coming one possession after this avenue.

Onto the "teams that suffer the biggest nightmares about Tex" award, which sees Port Adelaide move from 3rd to 2nd, leapfrogging Brisbane. Fremantle still holds a significant lead over other teams. Despite four goals against Gold Coast, Walker's average tally against them actually decreases from 4.67 to 4.5. Gold Coast are now 4th on the overall list in absolute terms, even though they've only had Walker line up against them four times.


Goals per team:

1) Fremantle - 26 (from 8)
2) Port Adelaide - 22 (from 8)
3) Brisbane - 21 (from 7)
4) Gold Coast - 18 (from 4)

6) North Melbourne - 17 (from 6)
7) Essendon - 14 (from 5)
8) Geelong - 12 (from 5)
9) St Kilda - 11 (from 6)

16) Collingwood - 1.33 (from 6)
17) Greater Western Sydney - 0.5 (from 2)


Finally, on the overall tally, Walker continues to hold 7th spot, with no active player close to him, and 49 goals separating him from DJ. In 50 goals time he'll catch up to the Birdman. Will it be this year, or will we have to wait until 2016? Only time will tell!

1) Tony Modra: 440
2) Mark Ricciuto: 291
3) Andrew McLeod: 277
4) Scott Welsh: 270
5) Brett Burton: 265
