CARLTON could attempt to lure Richmond small forward Ben Lennon into the pre-season draft if his contact impasse continues.
The Blues prized first pick in the pre-season draft has them watching with interest if Adam Treloar’s trade saga with Collingwood drags on.
But realistically Treloar will eventually get to Collingwood despite GWS list manager Graeme Allan confirming on Tuesday bidding is open.
Richmond had hoped to have secured second-year mid-sized forward Lennon by now, stating that he is a required player.
He was a huge Carlton supporter growing up and they are desperate for more goalkicking options given their scoring malaise.
His manager Anthony McConville said Tuesday he was still negotiating in good faith with the Tigers about a new contract.
But the Blues interest would ramp up if they could secure him for free given a breakdown in talks.
The Tigers have re-signed midfielder Shaun Grigg, who has activated a trigger for a third season in his current contract.
Lucky we got Griggsy
