It really is a disgrace that Lennon can't get a game. >:(

Your are over rating him. Lacks ticker
Maybe. However I'd like to see him when he is the target. When he played earlier this year, players were kicking to Jack and Griff and ignoring Lennon's leads.... :shh

Apart from not being the poo on Deledio's boot. Strength?  fmd, that is a stretch.

He may lack ticker but how would we really know as he hasn't really been given a decent amount of time to gain some confidence at AFL level. Especially lately.
And yet Grigg, BEllis and Houli have played over 400 AFL games between them and all are scared of their own shadow.
As I said before, I don't really give a poo about Lennon, I only give a poo about double standards when it comes to selection and our club.

I'd Dimma and the club think he is no good, than someone should have to answer for his selection at pick 12.

Spoken like someone who's only seen him a few times on tv....as for Deledio - lost count of the amount of times he went MIA for large parts of games...and usually the more important the game, the less you saw of him... :shh

lacks mongrel which shows how easily he was overtaken by Castagna, Short, Rioli etc.  People should not complain on one hand about playing squibs and then complain when one has been jumped by lads who do not give up, do not shirk the contest and train the house down.  Lennon has had a ton of time to prove he was hungry but he phones it in.

He's entitled, that why he spits it. He made all the promises and didn't deliver when he was given his opportunities.
Looks good, plays entitled

Can someone remember a game where guys who often get games also 'tore it up'? Ill throw a few names out there off the top of my head :- Vlastuin, Griffiths, Short, Menadue, C Ellis, Caddy, Conca, McIntosh.

Surely for a guy at the start of his career and with bags of VFL form and so much promise its about providing opportunities to prove himself.

Thought you were talking about our Caddy there for a second.....but then Caddy is given games. Lennon isnt.

Id also ask - if hes so terrible why does he keep kicking bags in rhe VFL? And is 20 games over 4 seasons a ton of time?

Well, i think its fair of me to say on behalf of Doc, Dio, Big Tone and others, we  maintain we are right on this one and nothing has been tabled which in reasonably suggests otherwise.

If there is however more to not playing him then by all means post away.
