The club is in no position to trade out a kid with huge potential and untried.

There is 12 players who are older and less upside than Lennon.

No1 is untraceable but if Lennon is part of a trade involving Yarran it better be a top 18 pick as well.

Yeah but the supposed 12 have no currency

Lennon has currency

There in lies the problem

Can't trade what no one wants

that theory is bullocks. We coughed up 32 for hampson, cats paid 20 odd for stanley.

dont be fooled into thinking what other clubs would pay. one mans trash...

Chap bents aint worth a pinch of salt, and grigg well lets hope his days are numbered but he would def get us a second rounder in a shallow draft with a GC type.

The only trade for Lennon I would accept is; Lennon for Treloar or Aish.

To me it would be early first round picks or future picks for the former.

Players to fill holes for the latter.

I reckon that will be the going rate.

Not true it appears - from Twitter

@zzaratam: @RalphyHeraldSun @TomBrowne7 @barrettdamian SEN reporting Aish has requested trade to pies? Any truth to this?

@RalphyHeraldSun: No. Lions still waiting on Aish & hopeful he stays as recently as this arvo. No request from him to go yet https://t.co/0WTNBI3gVj

Iam hoping we are not into Yarran.
How many soft outside bums do we want. The bloke doesn't know what a clearance or contested possession is. He doesnt kick many goals even when played as a forward. He hardly knows what a tackle looks like and quite frankly he just doesn't get enough ball. We have a seven year history to judge him by and there is no way on the planet i would want to see us offer up a first round pick for this bloke.
Fair dinkum people see the razzle dazzle and forget to look for the substance. And thats the problem, outside of his pace and some running of the lines with the odd bounce  there is little else to his game.
Surely people realise we have greater needs to fix than going hard for yet another softie who goes missing when the going gets tough.. In fact players of this type is the last thing we need.

correct claw!

Its a done deal and the best we can hope for is we cough up a second at best, but we all know this is not going to happen.

What do you say to a second round pick though? Reckon that'd be okay if played as a small forward we desperately need.

Reckon pies are really after Danger and throwing all these names up to cloud it.
No doubt they'd be happy with Treloar but Danger would significantly boost anyone's team especially theirs

At the end of the day there probably isnt much difference between Yarran and Matty White
