Ben Lennon has requested a trade.
that's strange. he signed on for 2 years in October last year. seriously what is a contract these days
Yeah, he's doging out because he only played 3 senior games this year.

Part of that is because he was injured for half the games this season (concussion, shoulder, ankle).

Should realise that he's absolutely a lock to play plenty more games in 2017.
May see the inclusion of Prestia = less chance of him playing midfield maybe

I mean, as ele's said, he's pretty good as a forward and would rotate through a bit plus blokes like Vlastuin somehow can't even get permanent midfield minutes for god knows why.

But yeah, whatever. It's all about Oleg these days anyway.  8)

Despite this, I can't help but laugh and who went the pick directly after him... Patrick Cripps.
Pretty sure the club was 100% committed to Lennon anyway.

Yep, as the Eagles were with Sheed. In fact I believe there was some annoyance among Blues fans that they didn't snare a key forward, though in hindsight its lucky they didnt! Cam McCarthy wouldn't be anywhere near as helpful as Patty Cripps right now :p

This is one thing I don't like, he has played 3 seasons of football at a club that isn't exactly looking that great on form right now. If he has good form you would expect him to play based on Richmond's position. How can you request a trade due to a lack of senior games? Does he expect them to just be given to him and if they aren't he is just going to bail to a crappier team that will?

Who would pick up Lennon if he can only get 3 games for Richmond?
Marcon and McBean have more value, especially Marcon showed promise.

1      Played in VFL trial against Northern Blues.   
2      Played in VFL trial against Essendon.   
3   Adel   Missed a shot for goal but spent a lot of time behind the ball in the back half.
4   WCE   Barely got into the contest.   
5   VFL   Had nine touches in a half then rested as a senior emergency.   
6      Concussion.   
7   VFL   Copped a head knock in first half and sat out after main break.   
8      Concussion.   
9      Concussion.   
10      Concussion.   
11      Shoulder.   
12      Shoulder.   
13      Shoulder.   
14      Shoulder.   
15   VFL   Did some handy things but looked a bit off the pace after some time out.   
16   VFL   Close to senior recall. Won a lot of his own ball (15 contested possessions).   
17      Bye.   
18   VFL   Hurt ankle in early exchanges and played no further part.   
19      Ankle.   
20   VFL   Best game of the season with 23 touches, 12 marks, three goals. Needs to play.   
21   Geel   One goal but generally quiet across half forward.   
22   VFL   Kicked a smart snapped goal but that was about it. Injured?   
23   VFL   Kicked two goals and was handy in attack but not a massive game.

Judging from this doesn't really look like he can complain about lack of game time

Exactly why I'm filthy, he's just being a little dog I reckon. The fact he wanted out last year too kinda adds to it.

As I've said, still a pretty good chance he gets plenty of games next season. Should just see out his contract and if he's still not getting games, then he have a whinge. But whatever, contracts mean nothing anymore and if his head and heart aren't at the club, he shouldn't be either.

Caleb Marchbank has requested a trade

RaisyDaisy

Gold Coast have delisted Tape, Stanley, Russell and Keogh

Really hope the pies go after Marchbank

We really need a player of his height and caliber down back

meow meow

Matt Boyd hasn't been offered a contract yet, because the Dogs are trying to replace him with Brett Deledio.

Herald Sun reporting that up to 6 Giants could be on the move

Carlton the early front runner for Marchbank

Tomlinson and Steele good chances to move, while the futures of Hoskin-Elliott and Stewart are unclear

Collingwood has emerged as a possible suitor for Tomlinson, and the Pies have already been looking at Hoskin

St Kilda heads a long list trying to lure Steele
