If Lennon thinks 16 games in 2 years whilst being injury prone gives him the right to ask for more money just because other clubs are interested then we should trade him straight off. Get a first round pick for him...

Just playing devil's advocate here

But what if it isn't the player wanting/asking for more money?

What if it's the club who's offering less

Just throwing it out there

What do you think he's worth for curiosity's sake?

This is why AFL player's salaries should be disclosed.

Well we do know the minimum kids drafted have to receive

But to answer your question I reckon $290-$320k a season with a few incentives for good measure

I don't know like you don't know what any players on

But I reckon it's a fair assume that a bloke who's been in the system longer than 2 seasons and played more than 16 games is going to earn more

Really? I wouldn't be offering more than $400-500k for two years. Happy to put incentives in.

Bloke hasn't really done anything yet.
