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.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Port Adelaide

      The undefeated Demons venture across the continent to the spiritual home of the Port Adelaide Football Club on Saturday afternoon for the inaugural match for premiership points between these long-historied clubs. Alberton Oval will however, be a ground familiar to our players following a practice match there last year. We lost both the game and Liv Purcell, who missed 7 home and away matches after suffering facial fractures in the dying moments of the game.

    • AFLW REPORT: Richmond

      A glorious sunny afternoon with a typically strong Casey Fields breeze favouring the city end greeted this round four clash of the undefeated Narrm against the winless Tigers. Pre-match, the teams entered the ground through the Deearmy’s inclusive banner—"Narrm Football Weaving Communities Together and then Warumungu/Yawuru woman and Fox Boundary Rider, Megan Waters, gave the official acknowledgement of country. Any concerns that Collingwood’s strategy of last week to discombobulate the Dees would be replicated by Ryan Ferguson and his Tigers evaporated in the second quarter when Richmond failed to use the wind advantage and Narrm scored three unanswered goals.

    • CASEY: Frankston

      The late-season run of Casey wins was broken in their first semifinal against Frankston in a heartbreaking end at Kinetic Stadium on Saturday night that in many respects reflected their entire season. When they were bad, they committed all of the football transgressions, including poor disposal, indiscipline, an inability to exert pressure, and some terrible decision-making, as exemplified by the period in the game when they conceded nine unanswered goals from early in the second quarter until halfway through the third term. You rarely win when you do this.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Richmond

      Round four kicks off early Saturday afternoon at Casey Fields, as the mighty Narrm host the winless Richmond Tigers in the second week of Indigenous Round celebrations. With ideal footy conditions forecast—20 degrees, overcast skies, and a gentle breeze — expect a fast-paced contest. Narrm enters with momentum and a dangerous forward line, while Richmond is still searching for its first win. With key injuries on both sides and pride on the line, this clash promises plenty.

    • AFLW REPORT: Collingwood

      Expectations of a comfortable win for Narrm at Victoria Park quickly evaporated as the match turned into a tense nail-biter. After a confident start by the Demons, the Pies piled on pressure and forced red and blue supporters to hold their collective breath until after the final siren. In a frenetic, physical contest, it was Captain Kate’s clutch last quarter goal and a missed shot from Collingwood’s Grace Campbell after the siren which sealed a thrilling 4-point win. Finally, Narrm supporters could breathe easy.
