Lynch !!

When Lynch plays to his pay grade - he's a difference maker. Hopefully he's going to do that consistently from now on.
Playing him higher inside 50 as a starting position is helping him. He’s not anchored to the square.
Plus he’s helping himself by being constantly on the move - harder for the defenders to grab & scrag. Gives him a run at the contests, grabs a few marks and hey presto, the confidence comes back.

Are we moving the ball better ? Is Lynch moving better and Clunking like the old Lynch ? Not sure but to get the points against Moore is a fair sign things are looking up
Has got on his bike. The difference between his running and leading against the Pies - coming out to the wings and hard leads in the forward line demanding the footy - contrasted to standing and pointing to put it in the air against the Dees could not be more different. Huge change.
Moore was shocking yesterday. At the ground he looked horrendous and even the commentators were scathing of him on the recording I watched when I got home. Was a mile off him numerous times. Howe wasn’t much better.
Still, you can only play against what you get (including a lowly WCE) and Lynch had dominated them both.

For the stats gurus - what was Lynch best set of games.
2019 was his best year for us to date - won us a few games that year including a prelim.

Reckon a big part of Lynch’s complete and utter domination of Moore was due to the way the ball was delivered directly to him rather than to a particular spot in the forward line. Moore kept sagging off to the spot he expected the ball to go while Lynch went somewhere else and kept drawing the ball directly to him.
I know it’s frowned upon around here to give credit to our coaches, particularly for anything forward line related, but I think we’ll have to make an exception here.

2 tall forwards instead of 3 more space to lead to
the 3 tall forwards we’re leading to the same space
Makes it much easier to play forward when there's a lot faster n cleaner ball coming in from the midfield. We're still stuffing up a fair few of our entries, but we're at least giving the big blokes a decent chance to go one out n in space.
Needs to take 10-15 more seconds to think through his around the corner shots. I think he has left 2-3 on the table over the last 2 weeks. super critical yes but as the Full Forward should not be missing those by rushing that kick.
Take your time Tom if your going around the corner. Go back, relax, take out the players who are still getting out of the way, kick the goal.
