I know as a team we had a great year, but I would have thought the coaches would have rated him higher than what he finished. He's an AA centreman FFS. On par with Roo re performances in the finals.

Either the way they do the B&F needs to be overhauled, or the coaches aren't watching the game. Pretty confident it's the former as the team seems pretty well coached :wink:
He only finished 5th in the clubs best and fairest because he played less games.
On a vote per game basis he was the club's best player with a higher votes per game than Riewoldt.

His work ethic is incredible and he carves teams up!
I think he is JUST beaten by Roo in terms of their value

He missed a few games. Had he not, he'd have been top 2 or 3

But i love him. The way he goes about his footy, his manner, his professionalism. He represents our club so well and i can't help but admire the way in which he attacks the ball and player.
And he is so well respected. My non saints supporting brother attends Saints games just to watch Lenny in the midfield. The guy is a gun, a star and imo will go down next to Harvey in the same sort of calibre - except hopefully with a Premiership.

Btw nice to see a thread that has no relation to Luke Ball. It makes a nice change.
I reckon with good body management he may play almost as long as Harvs did too. Champion. Genuine champion Saint.

Hard at the ball
Awesome by hand and foot
You wouldn't want to get in his way
Electrifying in full flight
So damn good it isn't funny (for the opposition)

Huge call and I hope you are right. I think he is more a Luke Ball type, not as tall as Lenny.
