I always thought Ben Lennon wasn't given much of a go, number 7 draft pick wasn't he?

So in retrospect he didn't take his opportunities or he just wasnt good enough?

Personally I think he wasnt good enough, but also didnt do enough to demand more opportunities - time will tell whether hes given another opportunity elsewhere

Big, strong, great hands and best field kick on the list, I'd rookie him and play him mainly as an on-baller....though if it came down to a choice between him and ,say, Jonty Scharenberg, would be inclined to take the latter....

Wouldn't it be great to grab Scharenberg and have him develop into a fine player.

Would put Crows fans into the most massive tail-spin.
