Was the first draftee where even his highlight videos showed up his limitations. Wrong size, not enough speed, fitness or agility

An overall odd draft selection.

Correct. Was one who was very difficult to see anything in him from the off.

I always hoped he would come good. I might have been disappointed if we weren't the PREMIERS
me too ;D

But seeing we are PREMIERS I find it hard to be disappointed about anything

Me too. I actually painted one of two down pipes under my carport (Black and Yellow). You know what? Its a great feeling, knowing we are premiers and displaying our colours. OH Yeah!
 
Can remember being excited when WC took Duggan and Lemon ‘slipped’ to us. Thought he’d be our Stevie J. I had sadly bought into the hype and the fact Deledio and co liked him after he’d trained with us.

Time to let go now Scoop. It's over. You fought a good battle but it's done.

He just wasn't up to it. To small to be a big forward; too slow to be a small/medium forward.

Classic tweener.

I was just never enamoured with his attitude. The constant looking elsewhere for a game was annoying. In hindsight we should have traded him for Yarran. Least we’d have both got nothing from it.

He’s an outstanding second tier player though. Hope he finds his niche, even as a rookie.

Will be interesting to see if another club takes a risk on him even as a rookie.

I suspect he'll get picked up. Us being premiers means clubs will probably look a bit closer at a guy like Lennon.

Thought he showed exciting glimpses when he first came to the club and I always wanted him to do well. But too many weaknesses in his game and with our stockpile of small forwards, including Bolton and potentially Naish, to come into the team this was the right call.

Wasn't Duggan in Cellis's draft?

According to Campbell Brown Collignwood would be a perect fit for Lennon :rofl :rofl :rofl

Shows how little intelligence Brown has.

Is that the same Brown who said we over rated our list?
 
Good luck to Ben, but he wa one of least fav players on the list
Said it day one, lacked urgency and he’s attack on the ball was putrid

Hope he can get a gig at another club though
