Free Agency Tom Lynch [moves to Richmond as a Restricted Free Agent]

[katmanblue]

Geez Tom will be tired in 2019 playing for at least 5 teams a week.

He'll also be making $1.5mill from each so it would be worth it.

Only read the last couple of pages but Lynch is a Restricted FA next year meaning GC can match any contract offered, which they probably will.

This means that Lynch would need to be traded for with good player/s and picks. So other than the huge salary for 5-6 years, which Vic club could get the deal done? It would need to be a club that has the likelihood of two very high first rounders but from Lynch's point of view has quick upside.

This narrows the field dramatically.

In Balme we trust. Get on it for him to be in the yellow and black.......

You've spent your cap on Martin. No chance.

 

[GC wayno]

It's a pity when exciting players like Nat Fyfe and Tom Lynch play for s**t teams that no-one cares about.

Such a waste of talent.

The thing with your s**t mob is you don’t have any exciting players at all for anyone to care about.

If it's Money he wants he won't be leaving GC. If he wants success... that is what puts us in the frame of he decides to leave.

Collingwood have participated in 4 grand finals and won a premiership in the last 15 years. Odds are that Lynch will be playing finals if he joins Collingwood sooner rather than later going by the averages.

Not with the current trend.

And the fact the Gill is going to offer him "ambassador" cash, only if he stays at the GC though, if that turns out to be true he'd be mad to leave, could be looking at 1.8 million pa if he stays, and that's before other 3rd party deals.

 

[Snake_Baker]

I can't see any other prospective clubs being able to afford him.

(We could, but with B.Brown we don't need him)

Family & Tom massive Pies supporters won't be defecting to the enemy, besides success is around the corner for most of us....you guys proved it this year with a good list, not great list.

Pendles, Treloar, Adams, De Goey, Elliot, Howe, Moore, Grundy, WHE....do you want me to keep going?

Collingwood supporters sounding like the 2018 version of North fans in the Josh Kelly thread.

As I said earlier in this thread so feel free to bookmark again.

Will be a Hawk in 2018.

Yeah it's the Collingwood supporters.

 

[Go Woods]

Welcome aboard Tom Lynch

You left out Mayne

 

[Strapping Young Lad]

Yeah it's the Collingwood supporters.

Surely you can see tazhawk is taking the piss?

Yep. Take a look at the Tigers.

 

[markm106]

If GC match a bid on Lynch, he's going to cost a minimum of 2 firsts as a trade. Can Collingwood afford to do that. I'm not sure they're in a position with the list to do that. Do they have enough elite young talent?

 

[GoTigers2015]

Yep. Take a look at the Tigers.

We have Balmy who has the midas touch.

It's no different to any of the Hawks posts on this site so no, everyone will be a Hawk.

Lol

 

[Bomber_Dan]

No chance he leaves, what north offered dusty would be nothing compared to what GC will pay and the AFL. Easily 2m+ player so I can't see him turning that down.

That's the plan world domination!

 

[TigersMan4]

I think people fail to realise how shifty clubs are with the salary caps and how many under the table deals the afl ticks off
