How long is LeCras out for?

 

[Trouto]

That's B/S them dropping Lynch

 

[carlos39]

That's B/S them dropping Lynch

best news i've had all week.

 

[new breed]

Pretty solid team , stacked the forward line with our best players and hope to kick a winning score without Lecras !

 

[kerrazy]

Spang!

 

[Double the Fist]

Nice to see Brown named up forward. Lynch. Needs a message. I think this is it. Probably lack of sleep with a newborn LOL.
I really hope Shue and Scooter tear it up and terrorise PA.

Oh yeah. Spangher.... WTF?????????? Bad bad bad
Nor good farging!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[mick06]

Lynch should have stayed in IMO. He could have played Lecras' role, hes a forward pocket stuck in an oger's body.

Glad McKinley didn't come straight in

 

[EagleMan87]

Thank Christ they kept their heads and left Swift in.

 

[Mattman93]

I agree with the dropping of Lynch. Love him most of the time but if we're going to go with a big forward line he needs to be bustling in to contests and making sure people get out of his way. Last week he played like the skinniest guy on the ground.

 

[smiths]

I like the changes... Lynch doesn't really play that huge of a part in the team. Hams getting selected would've been pretty good though.

 

[Lyyynnnchy]

I have a feeling that with Waters and Nicoski playing forward they will be told to bomb it long to Kennedy and Nic at every opportunity

Nothing wrong with Spang.

 

[new breed]

Lot placed on Brown with injury concerns .... heavily strapped knee and broken foot end of last season sorry I worry too much

 

[Crimson King]

Thank Christ they kept their heads and left Swift in.

Liking the Kennedy to FF/Brown to CHF.

 

[mick06]

i think its right, i can't say ive seen brown taking pack marks too often whereas kennedy likes to throw himself into contests. I rememeber browns first game, playing at chf, lead up well and looked dangerous

 

[Prem87]

Great Team. Good decision dropping Lynch, he doesn't kick enough goals for a FF. Finally Brown is at his perfect position at CHF.

Rosa still injured? Surprised Swift kept his place.

 

[Rids]

Hmmm - not much proven goal scoring power in that side ... hope Brown can step up in the forward line!

When they bring Lynch back into the side (and I am sure this will only be a few weeks out to send a message for a very disappointing pre-season) I hope it is as a half forward flank - I just don't know if he cuts as a key deep forward any more but he is still easily good enough to play a bit further up the ground.

 

[mitchzz]

Kennedy and Brown CHF/FF combination. Finally what I've always wanted to see. I'd probably use Kennedy at CHF rather and Brown at FF but gee, its good to see them there.

 

[pacemaker]

so Lynch won't beat Jackos record for most matches in a row

 

[Freezin]

Do you guys think Woosha will have Dalziell as an emergency for a 2nd week in a row?....Does he usually rotate his emergencies thus allowing them some game time back in the WAFL....whilst not the same intensity as the AFL....better than no footy at all.....

 

[jdisc]

Loving the Brown - Kennedy combo. But Nicoski? Seriously? I would rather Hansen or maybe even Embley to take the pocket. I would even prefer Notte to take it (thats right EasternHills, I said it)

 

[joeyavalanche]

so Lynch won't beat Jackos record for most matches in a row

thats what i was thinking.
bit of a shame really

 

[mehow2g]

Im afraid Lynch's best is behind him he used to be very mobile and quick.

 

[Be Aggressive]

I love Lynchy, but the side looks a bit better on paper now - much more dynamic. Brown can push up the wing and JK5000 can stick to within 60m of goal.

With JK5000, Browntown, Waters and Naitanui up forward at once, a Port player is going to suffer some kind of never-before-seen horrific injury (dislocated head? fractured everything? ).
