Well the club doctor did give the green light to send him back out on the ground with a four broken ribs, a minor lung puncture and, more seriously, a lacerated spleen. Blind freddy could see he was cooked on the night when it happened and especially when they sent him out after the quarter time break.
Our players could see it.

Surely someone isn’t gonna be giving lynch anywhere near that unless it’s a 3 year deal at the $1.5 total which would be a free swing I guess
3 years would be also to long I think
He’s body has been cooked last 2 seasons
Once traded can wage and all be re negotiated?
Same as the petracca talk. Re negotiations?
 
It wasn't only for Lukosius, its was also to obtain2 picks in the top 20 of this years draft, which could be handy in obtaining a free agent or just using in a very good draft....
I'd rather keep the talented player we've already got on our hands. We're screaming out for another mid..and here he is.
 
Rightly so, he has been treated like a dog in a third world country from what we've all been hearing since the incident.
I go back to the incident on match day itself and Melbourne putting him on the ground again.
If that was Nick Daicos or any Collingwood player in that pain initially, I am sure they would never have returned to the field at all that game.

Lynch is getting that money regardless, why would he play extra years for same dollars or renegotiate that over more years ?

You’re clearly not a doctor.

Medical negligence is very difficult to prove legally. Very difficult.

It certainly isn’t making a call on limited information.

Negligence would involve something like having a scan in the rooms that showed internal damage and bleeding, yet letting him go out there. Even then, it would not be clear cut.
I would have thought that if there is a valid complaint, it would likely be less specific Ie ‘medical negligence’ and more nebulous Ie ‘duty of care.’

Working under the assumption that there is a duty of care clause in AFL contracting as I’ve not read them.

So we wanted Lynch when he was approaching his youthful best and was one of the most exciting forwards in the competition.
Now we will get the injury prone, and the best behind him version of Lynch who has played 8 games in 2 years....🤔

And the price to obtain will also be very different.

lynch would be the kreuger replacement - not in ability as Lynch is clearly better but more so in reliability. However, if and when fit he will win you games. McStay and a fit lynch would be a big 1-2 punch.

If you’re referring to a doctor then they are the same thing. A breach of their duty of care is negligence.

It’s more that the standard of proof in order to establish a breach of the duty is very high and so it should be because if it wasn’t we’d have no doctors.

It would also be impossible to sue the club as for one, the doctor is not an employee and even if he was, how could they be negligent considering that doctor has expert knowledge and the club would be entitled to rely upon it.

Basically, there’s not going to be medical negligence and nor would such a thing void his contract.

It’s more just the “vibe”.

Not medical negligence by the doctor, duty of care by the club.

Do we know what the contracting language is around duty of care?
 
rich have no need for a salary cap dump of lynch, there’s no pick involved. They are losing plenty already.

He’s been cooked for two years. And his heavily backended contract is a hard no. It’s not a free swing. It’s a bloody expensive one
Said free swing if it was $1.5 in total and went over 3 years
Isn’t $500 almost the base wage these days.
Not $1.5 for a season
