Lynch: May can be the best defender

Some anger management therapy wouldn't be the worst idea for him if he doesn't do it already. There's no denying his ability, but when someone is so prone to spending time on the sidelines due to infractions it makes it hard to truly rely on him to permanently fill the role we require, as an incident at the pointy end of the season could spell disaster for our backline structure.

    I liked the banter between the two of them when Lynch suggested this to May - "big Anzac Eve game, you'll play on me"

    May: "Nah - I take the No 1 key forward, I'll be playing on Riewoldt"

    If people bothered to read the article they will come to realise that it's actually Alistair Lynch making the statement and not May's old teammate now at the Tigers.

    When I posted the article the thought that some might confuse them did cross my mind but then I thought "nah that couldn't possibly happen" yet here we are.

    I didn't read it but did find it strange that a teammate of Alex Rance would make that comment. Makes more sense now.

    Whoops. 

    Here's me assuming it was the Lynch who was an ex teammate, ex co captain, and someone who probably knows May's game as well as anyone in football.

    When has that ever been a pre-requisite for posting on here?

    sometimes I don’t even watch the 2 minute highlight package of our new recruits before I judge them.

    I think Harris Andrews will become the best defender in the league, probably by the end of the year, could also be a gun CHF

    Agreed. Super talented tall footballer. The Lions have assembled quite a nice batch of youngsters. If they can hold onto them they’ll challenge us over the next few years.

    I expect all clubs to challenge us over the next few years.
    But we should do some challenging of our own 1st.

    Now Hutchy owns Sen, I avoid the network and their stories

    When it was necessary to chase a tall tough key mobile backman to help nullify opposition tall forwards  to our club Goody recognised that S May fit that bill. He is one of the best backs and also versatile.He can link up the ground and can  also make the play by breaking the lines. IMO he will show his worth with  his first challenge being Hawkins next week if selected. No doubt. 

    May will possibly stand beside Lynch, Hogan , Josh kennedy  ,B Brown, Franklin sometime this year and some others and believe he will be up to it.

    Steven May  the Plug that stops the leaks and J Lever will be back soon enough to help with the mopping up.

    • REPORT: Western Bulldogs

      The next coach of the Melbourne Football Club faces the challenge of teaching his players how to win games against all comers. At times during this tumultuous season, that task has seemed daunting, made more so in light of the surprise news last week of the sacking of premiership coach Simon Goodwin. However, there were also some positive signs from yesterday’s match against the Western Bulldogs that the challenge may not be as difficult as one might think. The two sides presented a genuine football spectacle, featuring pulsating competitive play with eight lead changes throughout the afternoon, in a display befitting a finals match.The result could have gone either way and in the end, it came down to which team could produce the most desperate of acts to provide a winning result. It was the Bulldogs who had their season on the line that won out by a six point margin that fitted the game and the effort of both sides.

    • CASEY: Brisbane

      The rain had been falling heavily in south east Queensland when the match began at Springfield, west of Brisbane. The teams exchanged early goals and then the Casey Demons proceeded like a house on fire in the penultimate game of the VFL season against a strong opponent in the Brisbane Lions. Sparked by strong play around the ground by seasoned players in Charlie Spargo and Jack Billings, a strong effort from Bailey Laurie and promising work from youngsters in Kynan Brown and  Koltyn Tholstrup, the Demons with multiple goal kickers firing, raced to a 27 point lead late in the opening stanza. A highlight was a wonderful goal from Laurie who brilliantly sidestepped two opponents and kicked beautifully from 45 metres out.

      The Demons return to the MCG this time as the visiting team where they get another opportunity to put a dent into a team's top 8 placing when they take on the Hawks on Saturday afternoon. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • POSTGAME: Western Bulldogs

      The Demons lacked some polish but showed a lot of heart and took it right up to the Bulldogs in an attempt to spoil their finals hopes ultimately going down by a goal at the MCG.
