Just cause Lynch plays that higher role at the moment, doesn't mean he can't be a key target when required.
I think lynch is a very handy player that is simply willing to play his role. When the talls are all in, he's happy to go get the ball on the wing and provide a link forward.
Two years ago when Walker got injured, and McGovern wasn't on the scene yet, wasn't it a lynch/Jenkins combo as your only talls?
disagree about lynch - even though he is 192, he plays the role of a 185cm player. If he played closer to goal he would be minced by the bigger defenders, but he has one of the best tanks in the afl for his role.

He is a big boy and does very well one on one, so now i can stop abusing him and throwing the control at the T.V Every time his player gets the footy. KUDOS KYLE..
Spot on - he has really stepped up this year imo, and is massively exceeding expectations.
Plays on the deepest forward, whether that is robbie gray or a big hulking forward, and does well.
The defender I am most excited about is Jake Lever. He played an incredible game on the weekend, and is one of the best intercept players in the comp. Wont be all australian this year but wouldnt be surprised if he was in the squad given how he is going.
