Lynch !!

[TigerFlag2017]

Saw him this morning at work, and he said he will announce where he is going in 1 week. Second time in the last month or so I have had a short interaction with him at work, and he is the most awkward person. I cant put my finger on it, but he just seems nervous or socially awkward or something! :cutelaugh :cutelaugh

Interesting comments in hindsight. This was very evident at the start if the year.

I think Tom is maturing in front of us this year. He seems a lot more relaxed and happy and it is reflected in his performance. Richmond is good for him. I could imagine that being captain at the suns and in the spotlight, given his personality, contributed to his move.

Fortunate enough to have seen Royce play at his peak.......just beautiful to watch.
For the unlucky ones..... kick back for a couple of hours and watch the great man!
Intro by another great man

Moved to Melbourne in 1974 so saw a bit of Royce. It is so noticeable in old footy clips that he would contest the mark but also contest the ball on the ground, far ahead of his peers. Big marking forwards would go for the mark and if they didn't get it would stop back then.

Just as an aside, watch this game, you will love it - the '73 prelim is one of the best games ever.

Lotsaluv coming for Tommy
(heard a bloke call Lloyd on radio the other night and he said at the game they shout out Liability Lynch when he gets the footy, in honour of Lloyd ! . ..... poor old autumn leaves!)

On 3aw talk back a caller rang in and said Liability played well!, there was awkward silence while Lloydy framed his response, it was cringe worthy, something like:
I am not going to take back what I said but maybe i didn't take in account enough how big his operation was and how little pre-season Tom had. (You'd think he might of thought of that before he made his dumb comment)

I was a bit too young to appreciate Royce but if Lynch reminds them of Royce I would have absolutely loved him. Watching the replays of the last two games I just can't believe how good he's been. Has totally ripped the opposition apart. I guess it's no coincidence it's happened when Reiwoldt's come back.

It's more that he is fit and has confidence in his body rather than the addition of Reiwoldt. He has built into the season beautifully. Monster. Pies are gonna struggle to hold him and Reiwoldt. Usually I want the rain but wouldn't mind if its dry, we will have the aerial advantage.

Sure he's obviously getting fitter every game but Reiwoldt's presence demands a quality tall defender and this often makes it more difficult for an opposition to double team. I am sure Reiwoldt's 3 early goals last game forced Port defender to play even tighter. This has to help Lynch get space and more involved I would have thought. Regadless I just love the way he attacks the ball and his immense skill at ground level as well. It's just a joy to watch. It's why turn styles click (hmm!).

Isn't it a joy watching two top line forwards work their trade!!

Lynch marks outside the 50 wheels around and kicks to Riewoldt who has just one undersize defender to deal with. Riewoldt must think this is Xmas.

Even more dangerous when dusty is in the goal square as it stretches out their key defenders.

 

[zippadeee]

Realistically Our forward line looks so dangerous.
Add Stack Castagna even cotchin.

 

[Baloo]

He's become a complete handful for defenders. Umpires are on to it and he's now drawing frees

 

[Bullarto Tiger]

Ripper of a game from Tom

 

[St Kevin]

Someone needs to drop the American Pie.

What a game from Tommy!

 

[year of the tiger]

Best game for the club - again.

Each time he plays these days he looks better and better

 

[The_General]

That's why we chased him. Fantastic effort. Maybe Greg Louganis would like to reconsider now. He may have been a better than average, even good forward, but he's a horrible judge of talent.

 

[larabee]

Cant wait to see the big fella in september.

 

[Don’t Argue]

Speechless.
As dominant a first half of football as you will ever see. This guy could be anything.
Scary good

 

[UKTiger]

You know, we may well have a forward in Lynch!!

 

[ToraToraTora]

An absolute monster. Incredible hands on the deck. A frightening prospect for defences in the next 2 months.
