Wont go into my work details but i meet and drink with a fair few big wigs, last night over a beer with one of lynch mangers mates i was told in simple form, lynch has not comttited to any club and simply put highest bidder wins out of the powerhouse vic teams. Bloke wants a good chance at success but will sign with one of the top vic teams over others for money.
Then he won't be at Richmond.
There you go guys. It’s over
Lynch to #Go North! confirmed
He said "a good chance at success". Anyway, Norf has Ben Brown, who is better than John Coleman and Plugger combined.
We dont need him. He really isnt that good. The guy doesnt tackle, doesnt run and chase and if you're selling the farm then you're upsetting the cart.
It's a solid NO from me unless he is available for under 800K. If he took unders it would indicate he is willing to prove himself.
Only Fyfe can come into RFC on that kind of cash.
We are king of the hill, and should not be paying overs for a Fwd who shows glimpses. FFS he aint Buddy.
He really is that good, Dice. He does run, is a Nick Riewoldt-level aerobic athlete. He's shown way more than glimpses. Is an absolute gun.
Get Crips I agree , gun . **** Lynch lazy player and if we pay 1.4 mill for him we have rocks in our heads .
Lazy. Lol. The bloke runs more than just about any key yforward in the game.
my biggest concern going after a tall forward is this:
our entire game plan is based around every player on the field buying into that defensive pressure when we don't have the ball.
as we have seen on occasions, if 1 person isn't pulling their weight, the whole thing almost falls apart and the opposition will find easy ways through.
will we get the same kind of buy in / application from a KPF?
my only thought is that maybe this is part of a new game plan going forward in 2019 that we are developing and working on. Casue I'm not totally sold it would work in our current game style unless they chase and pressure as much as one of the blokes they would be replacing.
Lynch is a better runner than Townsend and Jack. Towner basically plays as an undersized defensive key forward. Lynch would take his spot, open space with his running, and take the heat off Jack.
Let's get this straight: Lynch is a deadset GUN. We don't want to sell the farm to get him, but if we can do it without upsetting any carts, apple or otherwise, it's a no-brainer.
