Clearly been sooking it up all year, stop talking about character as if he's got it by the bucketload.

dunno where you get your info from Jimmae,
but I reckon it's wrong and unfair.
blind Freddy could see that Lachie has a decent character,
and is not the petulant type.

He chose not to exercise numerous options if he felt the club was being unfair. If we were/are forcing him out, that's grounds for any trade to be torn up.

Comes from a good family but he's had this attitude bubbling away in him since the Lions days.

you mean numerous options like turn up on game day and contribute more than 10 disposals and a few marks? you know, like a real leader would?

Can't agree with that. I think he is a sook.

Might be a nice bloke etc but when the going gets tough he is the type that goes missing.

Are we trying to build up Menzel's trade value?

No, he earned the spot back.

Sorry bluegirl, I am afraid I agree with Jimmae and others. Lachie was given a second chance by us, he was in the leadership group, and when we really needed him to lead, he walked out. Maybe the culture isn't great and the team is certainly ordinary. He could have chosen to help lead us fporward, he chose to walk out

Walsh deserved a go before Menzel IMO

He's a 20 yr old with plenty of talent FFS. How about this rabble of a club actually try and take the time and responsibility and create an environment to develop such talent. Easy option is to crucify him for some of his flaws and trade him away only to watch him thrive elsewhere.

He's a spud. Can't run, can't find the ball. Another poor pick who is getting found out
