Unfortunately we have 3 more years of Lynch who is cooked, treacle slow and on big big dollars. Huge concern!

If he’s injured, that’s one thing but if he’s not then we’ve got big problems. The last 5 weeks he’s looked like a dinosaur with beach balls for claws.

Don’t know if there’s a slower, bigger rubber hands in the league. Last week he was dropping chest marks.

Yes, tom's had a very ordinary year.

it happens.

no tom, we dont make the 2019 GF.

if he never marks another ball and turns into a josh jenkins/ty vickery spoof,

i'll be eternally grateful and consider him underpaid.

but yes, i hope he wins the coleman next year

Exactly.
If he wasn’t there with Jack’s injury we don’t make finals let alone win the flag.
Was huge that block of games. Huge.
Paid his way but still doesn’t look right.
Lose against the Roos, he gets rested. Cotton wool and play CJ.

We all know the role Lynch played in 2019. The only relevance that has to 2021 is how far he has regressed as a footballer.

But in 19 we had small forwards who were dangerous when he at least brought the ball to the ground.

Now that is non existent. Time to free the players up again & them just play to their strengths.

If the knee is buggered, I would prefer to see him put in cotton wool and the knee operated on if necessary. If 22 is another year of this, we might as well go the tank.

If the knee is buggered then we have a salary cap anchor around our necks.

not to take away his efforts in the 2019 prelim

The whole team is playing like poo at the moment.

Who would want to be playing in our forward line at the moment. Considering we cant buy a free kick not sure we can hang it all on Lynch

Hand & knee injuries have hampered him big time.
I'm glad we've won a couple of flags with him but this also highlights the problem with long term deals.
Concerning.
No chance little oldie.
We won 2 flags he is worth every single cent and year.
I don't give a *smile*. what's Franklin done at Sydney?
What's Danihiar doing at Brisbane?
The *smile* prick at Geelong?
We never lose on the lynch deal.
Lynch is a legend

I am comfortable Lynch has paid for himself.

My concern is by playing him we are accelerating his knee decline. If an operation is an option and extends his career, then I would prefer we pull the trigger now. The season is shot (stating the obvious).
