Needs to work on his forward game but his ruck work is afl standard , he is a competitor and has turned himself into a man beast while being 1 of the good guys...
He deserves a go and he will have a fair crack.

Personally I am not really sold on Lynch.
He is too small to make it as a number 1 ruck and doesn't have the forward craft to be a ruck/forward ala David Hale.
I reckon Meek will already be past him as our choice for second ruck by round 1 next year.
Lynch is fine up forward. Having said that, meek is a replacement for mcevoy, and Lynch is a match-up based selection
Great pick up for the club. Can see him taking the brunt of the centre bounces with Ned spending more time up forward. Make no mistake, bringing Meek in allows Ned to keep developing and rehabing his shoulder over summer. Last thing we needed was Ned going up against the best rucks every week with little back up. Hopefully Lynch can get some consistency at Box Hill and have a good run with injuries with the Ram honing his craft predominantly as a forward
I just love have 4 decent young rucks on the list now. I never wanna see Nash or Kosi in there again.

I think we will have best ruck combo in the AFL in a year or two with Ramma up forward
I prefer kozi in there to his non-leading, barely marking forward craft

Looks switched on at centre bounces, gets involved, shepherds, plenty of promise here.

No. At least he toils up forward - watching him get massacred in the ruck this year was bleak.
Turtles all the way down

Meek is the 9th oldest player on our list!
Looks a beast. Our ruck department is sorted for the next 5-6 years... touch wood. Just keep the bees away.
Seems like a cracking bloke. Go Hawks!
Geez pretty hard on Kosi. I'm backing him in to have a much improved year in his favoured position after a (hopefully) uninterrupted pre-season

Really good get. The only guy traded out this year that Freo fans are actually sad about. Good bloke, great clubman, never seems to get injured. I wouldn't be surprised if he gave you 150 games.

Would of had some pretty good intel from Hale about him too.
He looks aggressive too which is great

Yes, I can hear you Clem Fandango!
That highlights package Hawthorn have put up...wow!
The guy is a small office building.
Big Boy Meekavoy indeed.
