Andy is still doing the business, How they manage to keep him at Bradford i don't know, He must have a good contract but then he could have a good contract at a decent club and maybe winning things as well, He was by far Bradford's best player against HKR. The club must be doing something right for him, the team last night just rolled over.

on a serious note twig i would rather play andy in an england team than, morley, carvell and peacock. i think he would make a superb prop partnership with james graham. and he is younger than the other 3 as well.

He has been a great servant and ambassador for the club.

His problem is that he's too nice. If he had a bit more mongrel in him he would have tw@@ed his own halfbacks three months ago.

Yep, and that's the reason for me he'll never really be the captain. Great player that he is, he isn't captain material and never has been. Probably more of a figurehead thing because he has been so good for the club.

It's a shame he hasn't represented his country more - a couple of times he ruled himself out because of injury and I think a couple of times himself - I think last year he was getting married and didn't want to cancel everything!

Also, as good as Morley's short spell at the Bulls was in 2005 - Lynch deserved to play (and win) in that Grand Final.

I love to see a player of Andy's calibre at Rovers. I am an admirer but still feel that he is quite undervalued. He has 8 tries in 24 games and is the league's 4th top meter-maker!

Ironically I think this has been one of Lynch's indifferent seasons compared to the rest of his time at the Bulls.

On his day though he is a brilliant prop and I've been perplexed by his lack of international recognition (both in speccies' and coaches' opinions)

He dosen't wear the right shirt mate.

I've often felt like that too, but if the current England coach doesn't know Andy's capabilities then no-one does.

i had a joke with patrick ah van on wednesday and asked him to kidnap andy and force him to sign for us. i agree with the bulls fans, if andy played for a top 4 club he would walk into the england team. i personally rate him in the top 3 british props.
