There’s some things he can work on obviously but geez the umpires give him nothing. Especially when you consider the free kicks that some of the other KPF around the league draw. He is constantly held/blocked off the ball and has his arms chopped and is taken high in the contest.

Spot on been happening for years never getting the frees Blind Freddy can see and othere forwards get.

It's so frustrating

Posted it in the match day thread

What does he have to do get a free?

Change his name to Tom Hawkins?

Lynch is only 3 goals behind Hawkins in the Coleman. You wouldn't think so given all the criticism the media gives him.

--------------------------------------------------

Lynch enjoyed his best game of the season, taking his season goal tally to 10 from four games, combining with Jack Riewoldt, who booted two goals in his return from a broken thumb.

"I managed to get up and get on the end of a couple. I thought it was good, I was going at the footy alright and using my body and contest and if I didn't mark it I brought it to ground which is my job," Lynch said.

Back to being largely ineffective.

Why can’t he ever take a reliving mark down the line?…

Shocking tonight and really gets me how he doesn't present for the outlet kick like other big forwards.

he got a goal from one. What about parts of his game that don't require umpire assistance?

A memorable 200th. Leading the Coleman tonight  :clapping.

Also kicked his 400th goal.

Shut up a few of the media critics too. Our problems have been further up the ground which has starved Tom. Tonight the ball was mostly in our forward half so Lynch had a day out.
