It seems to come naturally to him, taking out the right opponent at the right moment, taping the ball here or there without taking possession. At the moment the kids are not switched on to his tricks, which is why in the first few weeks we have only seen Wright and Daisy taking advantage of Lamb's work. Lamb working besides some experienced small forwards would be a real pleasure to watch because he would create goal scoring opportunities for them. Most people do not see it, most only see the bloke who kicked the pill last! But Lamb is providing chop outs which at the moment we do not take any advantage of!
I reckon Lamb will be a Grigg type for us in years to come, as long as we don't kibosh him before he gets the chance to develop his skills further and have them taken advantage of by somebody, hopefully!
Yep good call.
Really loved his games against the Hawks and Sicily last year. As you said it comes naturally to him as he seems a pest, in the best way possible...for us!
I think the Hawks games was a bit of a turning point for him last year, and I like that he pushes into the midfield a bit also.
