She's 100% right.

It was a selfish, dumb, individual first thing to do. If the Saints bloke had turned his head he'd be sitting in the stands next week.

He should have been dragged off the ground and had his backside smacked when he was six and got that sort of behaviour out of him.
Loved his game and love his attitude. Can't let backmen have all the cheap shots just because you're an important player with a baby face. Nothing Lynch has done this year was newsworthy. Nothing.

Just needed to be less obvious. Trip over the guy as you get up or something.

15 center clearances to 5. That's unheard of for a modern Tiger team.

I thought we played better last week in terms of disposal. Maybe it was just me but we seemed to be very fumbly tonight. Missed a lot of marks, lost our footing. Was it quite dewy, didn't seem to affect Saints as much.
I think opposite, last week was much more fumbly. Much cleaner tonight.

His game yes, and at one stage he buried a bloke who had the ball in their forward 50. That's tough footy and everything a big forward should be. We all love that.

But the cheap shots on blokes lying flat on the ground is the other end of the scale. He's so much better than that.
Put a camera on e.g. Zak Jones and you'd see similar. It's nothing at all.

I agree. All you ever see on TV is the reaction. Lynch pushes the boundary but so do all the most competitive players. I'm more concerned about the number of times Cotch seems to be doing head high tackles lately.

Impressive to get to prelim after being stuck in a hub most of the year. Not playing our best but given ourselves a crack at back to back and 3 in 4.

Twilight games in QLD become more dewy on ground and as the evening progresses and teams struggle to be clean.

Is the GF a twilight or night game?

Might need some resin to get the ball to stick if we make the GF.

Dixon does the same things Lynch does and everyone talks him up like he's Carey. It's simply that Lynch plays for the Tiges and they just don't like us.

Agree. If any Victorian team wins it this year it will go down as one of the best considering the entire season and finals was played away.
