Despite three Colemans Jack has always had the capacity to be blanketed by the best defenders. He also kills when he gets a match-up which works for him. If he kicks straight we would say "3 goals - he did ok". Drums aren't beating yet.

Easily the best game for the club - better than the Port game earlier this year.
Not many players kick 5 in a prelim - is a rare player and he is setting himself for a big one next week

He is one hell of a player.
I remember last year's Prelim and all the talk that Cox had beaten us. Cox had a good night, but Cox had a good night because we were getting smashed in the middle and they were getting quality inside 50 entries that Cox could lead to and at 6'11" no-one could spoil his marking.
In contrast Lynch was taking contested marks last night. There is no comparison, Lynch was able to win the ball and create opportunities in contested situations and under a lot more pressure.

And the prophecy was for filled.
We would not be playing this week if it wasn't for this bloke.
Tower of power. Could play full forward in 1975, 85, 95, 05, 15 and 25.
JR is an all time RFC great. But he ain't a 6'6" Hercules with giant testicles that extend up into the clouds. Will cause GWS no end of problems Sat.
I like your use of the vernacular, it's Jack Dyer like.
Tom sure is a ballsy player
There's a clip in the 3rd Q in the lead up to Presita's goal. Dangerfield is chasing and Lynch runs him down and lays a massive bump on Dangerfield who went tumbling arse over tit. How many tall forwards in the AFL chase and do the 1%ers like ours?
Not discrediting or downplaying Tom's performance, but the delivery from Prestia was sublime. He would have kicked 100+ this year if the midfield had provided that sort of service all year.

I posted this a few days ago, and don't forget it could be karma for that stupid tweet Diverfield sent to Lynch about finding the airport.
That 1st goal after half time is just about my favourite moment of the match. ..
Cotch tackles ... then the 3 Gold Coast blokes go bang, bang, bang... thing of beauty
Imagine how good he will be next year with a full pre-season under his belt. He might kick 100 goals for the season. He has certainly been worth every cent to us this year, and will probably only get better.
In 2017, when we weren’t expecting to compete in a GF and weren’t prepared to capitalise on merchandising and corporate opportunities, we made around 3m profit.
Winning this year puts Tom’s salary in perspective. Think it’s very realistic to say, no Lynch, no Premiership. That’s a very good investment right there
That's great. Clearly doesn't like him and is happy to run through him at any opportunity.
Well played Lynch.
Typical Dangerfield.
Took a dive, acted tough push & shove and then walks away while his team mates flew the flag.
