Webb I have worries about, I like Lynch's offense but not convince on his defensive side yet.
Bailey Williams I'm a huge fan of. Looked composed at AFL level last year, just has the disposal and decision making and movement to really be a weapon for us. I expect he'll take JJ's career trajectory and he'll be massive for us in a couple of years post-Bob & Boyd.

So I'm a little confused, but I really, really rate his potential, and with another pre-season and more bulk (remembering he looked 12 when we drafted him) should really help. To go up as a side we need some kids to pressure the MC with white hot form, and I'd have money Dale will be one of them.
I'm a big Bailey Dale fan. Great Vision.
They say Burt Lancaster has one, but I don't believe them.

Re: High praise for rookie Lynch
Had some really important moments and didn't look out of place, at all really. Let's see some more of him.

Re: High praise for rookie Lynch
Stood up superbly. Can he sustain it and earn an elevation?

Re: High praise for rookie Lynch
Started off slowly but soon adapted to the pace of AFL and his confidence grew. Pretty good skills and kicking was excellent. Even took the kick out sometimes from Goal.

Re: High praise for rookie Lynch
Really looks like the type better suited to the AFL than the VFL - turn of pace, takes the game on
If you kicked five goals and Tom Boyd kicked five goals, Tom Boyd kicked more goals than you.

Yeah I agree. The fast pace of the game really suited him to a tee.

Re: High praise for rookie Lynch
He did really well. Brings something with his pace and his kicking is definitely something we need.

Re: High praise for rookie Lynch
Fantastic that he gets to play in a game like that. He won't forget it
And he knows he contributed well to a great win. Confidence boosting for him to come into a team that worked so hard. The bar has been set.

The kick out he took late was an absolute peach. Hit his target bang on the 50.

The kick from inside the centre square where he hit Schache in the goal square was also a great kick.

Re: High praise for rookie Lynch
I thought Ghosty was very impressive; looked much better than at VFL level although I suppose that's thanks to being able to slip under the radar. He has a lot of great attributes and we'll be laughing if he kicks on because he has both pace and footskills which is something we badly need.

He played a similar game in the VFL last week. I think it was Smads57 who said that Etihad would suit him.
