This club is more than happy to spruik when it gives a game to a 'find' from late in the draft or from the rookie draft.
Yet it is silent on the matter of when a first round pick isn't working out such as Lennon, Vickery or Conca and I am starting to get a bit sick of this double standard.
I feel like I am owed an explanation on what is going on with Lennon. A cycle has developed where he gets injured, unlike others he has to earn his way back into the side, then when he does, he only gets one game. Why?

No wonder he was dropped
Worst quarter of football I have ever seen

well that is what the vfl is for though, so you don't end up standing around with a blown head gasket in the fourth.

Gotta say, the first two times i just used measured common sense, thinking he has been injured and deprived of development  and senior game time.

He didnt look any worse the third or fourth time.
