Joel Lynch

[SUFC Guy]

I don't know why folk are so keen to write him off when he could be the lynch pin of our defence

Third match and he's not played so guessing he's off trial now?

I think we may have just quietly left him in Portugal. He’s still sat in his hotel room waiting for the call telling him when everyone’s flying back to the UK.

Not seen him enough to comment myself, but some general comments:

O'Connell will be our first choice at LCB. We've tried adding an inexperienced young player to be cover, but for whatever reasons, Kean Bryan hasn't managed to become even that. I still doubt Wilder will prioritise competition for O'Connell, so again we're looking at a reasonable backup/cover. Maybe an experienced guy is worth a look.

Reading about him, positives include:

• Being comfortable in possession, good on the ball
• Quick
• Has played left back in the past
• Physically strong
• Good in the air

We've used Stevens at LCB a couple of times and he did fine. But we've got no cover for him in his main position at the moment. And with the way the squad is looking, we may be struggling for height, especially if we move Stevens to LCB.

Let's not write Lynch off at this stage.

Why should Lynch be treated differently to anyone else?????

If he is he's a really good hider and the rest are really poor seekers

Thanks for the reply, I seriously haven’t seen or heard anything about him, I automatically thought is he going to be the ‘old’ Kean Bryan.
