Our offer on its own is irrelevant. How our offer compares to other offers is decisive. The question is, what can we give him other clubs can’t?
Why would Lynch (at 200cm) want to spend every second week flying 8 hours?
If Lynch was loyal, why would he want to leave his team and his teammates?
If Lynch likes living on the Gold Coast, why would he want to leave?
Lynch is from Victoria, and he did want to leave, why would he want to live in Perth?
If Lynch wanted to win, why wouldn’t he go to Hawthorn?
If Lynch I was a romantic, why wouldn’t he want to play for his childhood team?
If Lynch wanted to ‘grow his brand’, why would he want to play for a mid-tier team outside of the ‘heartland of the AFL?’
All these things would weigh on a player’s mind. The question is, what could we offer him? A strong team and a good coach. There are a few of those around, and many on here don’t even rate Roly. Do we even have more money to throw at Lynch than other clubs?
