What's the story?
Lorch, like many attacking players in the PSL, is naturally gifted in the skills department. With flair and technical ability being part and parcel of a South African footballer's arsenal, Lorch reigns supreme as one of the best in the land.
Currently out injured, it can be said that Bucs fans are definitely starved of the Bafana Bafana star's brilliance with coach Josef Zinnbauer recently mentioning that the club is unsure as to when he would be returning to action.

Rakata Flava
That being said, over the years, supporters have gotten used to Lorch making players dance with his skills, especially when he pulls off a clean Rakata.
In Pirates 3-0 win over Tshakhuma Tsha Madzivhandila in the DStv Premiership earlier this season, Lorch had social media buzzing when he sent one of the TTM players in the opposite direction with the move.

Also, in what can be deemed as a classic clip of Kasi Flava in local football circles, Lorch's skill show against Thabang Monare while they plied their trade with Maluti FET College and Jomo Cosmos respectively, will always be shared among supporters.
