If you can’t mark it bring it to ground.
Issue we don’t have anyone at ground level to scoop it up.

if Tom brings it to ground within 30 metres of goal, which is where he should be, we can be dangerous as there's always 1-2 smalls nearby.

But if he's running to the 50 arc and brings it to ground, our smalls are almost never nearby.

Need a really good game from Lynch today. Want to see him assert himself, particularly on the scoreboard with three or four goals.

You've never worked on a farm have you TD.

You lift a wheelbarrow with your palms on bottom and fingers wrapped on top.

Still hearing no excuses for Jack wheel barrowing Tom around the ground this year.
Thinking you're too short-sighted here LD.
Spent long enough on a farm to know the work is done by the tractor and the dog.
The tractor carting the big loads.

I'm thinking Jack gets Big Tom up on his shoulders to carry him to the wings.
Unbeatable height advantage.
George to run around barking

WTF has happened to this bloke? Just can't get free of defenders like others do and seems to lope a lot now.

He also can’t get a kick to his advantage. As the game went on some of our inside 50 kicks to him were deplorable.

Made a couple of very strange decisions for a key forward. One time he should have kicked a relatively easy goal and handballed to a player under pressure instead. Kick the goal, that's your job.

Most of the time he's bushed by players so he's got low chance of marking. Why doesn't he lead into space? Jack can still mark and lead better.

My son said to me today,” I watched his Gold Coast highlights during the week, what happened?”
I couldn’t answer him.
Looks completely lost and lacking confidence.

Can’t find space, can’t mark, poor kick for goal, no athleticism, poor decision making, useless at ground level, zero defensive effort and prone to giving away free kicks. Other than he is ok I guess.

Hard to see where he is worth $1m a season. 2019 was a long time ago.

He’s lost his athleticism - I reckon it’s that simple. Can’t run & can’t jump.

Sadly true.

I’ve been critical of this bloke over the past year but the delivery he gets is ordinary. The kick on the head of the tall forward doesn’t work with the athleticism of opposition defenders .
is being hampered by a lot of our forward entries being made under a lot more pressure than in the past five years thus there is a lot of bombing the ball in.

And the likes of Castagna flying against him doesn’t help. From the point of contesting his run at the ball and bringing another defender with him. Dumb.
