How many drinks would one have to have to even consider breaking this streak.?

Oh .

Guess the answer is 4.

Back to topic. After last night I'm not really sure spending a million plus a year on Lynch is such a great idea. I understand he is a good player with some leadership skills but to play him beside Jack who do you drop?

One of the small forwards?  That would change the entire stucture of a flag wiining team
Caddy maybe?  I don't think so after the last 2 years.

I know Jack is not getting any younger but I'm not sure this is the way to go. Would prefer us to develop one of our own

I really don't know if it's the best move for us. What do you guys think?

I think we should move heaven and earth to get him.

I go to just about every Richmond game at the MCG and to not have watched a loss live in about 18 months is something pretty special. Throw in another A grade forward which we desperately need IMO and it might be another 18 months of wins.
In this game you can not stand still- you need to be constantly improving.

By all reports he is an A grade fella as well which goes a long way in the environment this club has worked hard at creating.

I think he is perfect for what this club needs.

Think about the 2nd quarter where we had approx 20 inside 50s and only scored 1 goal in the last minute. Throw in one of the best contested marks in the league to take some attention away from jack and imagine the results....

Yep I can see all that you guys say but I have some questions.
Who do you drop?
How does it change a winning game plan?
Who do we loose because we can't pay them due to the million plus we pay Lynch?
What do we have to give up to get him?

It's just not as simple as " add a good player" makes the TEAM  better.

I'm not against getting him, just think we should look at the other questions.
