do u go to the *smile*en games, i agree that his last 2 games have not been dominant was ok against WC but serious get ur finger out of ur ass, tonight our whole midfield got walloped, tuck and jackson sure they get the ball what the *smile* do they then do with it...i witness it first hand every week the butchering.
I saw foley run the lines several times and that was good but i tell ya pretty much each and every time he turned it over, lids and foley both got 84 DT scores and foley had 30 possies 9 more than lids) but foley turned it over continually, but u wouldnt know that wouldnt you.
do u know the term downhill skier, a player only plays welll when the team is winning, Umm so he beat ling and was in our best in RD 2 V the cats with 30 possies and we lost, beat sherman and power at the G V the lions with 30 possis but we lost, had a very good game V the swans but we lost, beat kane kornes V the power at AAMI but we lost, was pretty much BOG when we beat north and freo, i mean do u see the nonsense in how u try and articulate urself...learn what the term is then post it.
So theres about 6 games just there where he's been in our best and most times we lost..
and another thing for ur information he wants to stay at richmond "out of his own mouth" so where do u get off saying if he wants out show him the door...if u wanna have a crack at someone u better be well prepared for a comeback, where were u when he was best or near best in some of those games mentioned above didnt hear boo from you, perhaps u were the one looking in the mirror and missed it all...

opinions no problems i even said he's last weeks hasnt been great and i havent given him votes, but stupidity i have a problem with, downhill skier *smile* smoking aces ascerted to and that was incorrect and also saying if he wants out show him the door, i mean who the *smile* said that.
lookinh at himself in the mirror what is he in his bedroom or bathroom, give me a break u want to talk footy fair enough u want to talk rubbish expect me to be replying and setting any wrongs right, now was that so hard to understand U2....read my post carefully and ul see what i actually mean, almost reiterating myself in this post.

read my above post to SA and ul see why i wrote what i wrote, it aint that hard mate :hihi but for some it is
Sorry to offend you Astute Tiger. Didnt know you felt so strongly about Deledio. But if you think that for a guy with that much talent who has been in the system for 5 years is performing to a acceptable level then you as a supporter has very low expectations.AstuteTiger said:
Agree with astute. Didn't see the game last night, but at times this year when BD has copped it I've genuinely felt like I've been watching a different game. I reckon this year will be the making of him. For the most part he has stood up and led this year. Has had a couple of quiet games, poor by his standards but not shockers. He's still young and regular floggings do get to you, he ain't superhuman, yet.
As I've said a lot, the criticism of him in bad times is exactly like that that Hodge copped for a few seasons up to a couple of years ago. I reckon it actually reflects a messiah mentality rather than rational analysis. But I can understand that.

Deledio has not lived up to expectations, cannot shake off a tag, and very rarely damages opposition on the scoreboard.
It wouldn't surprise me if he finds another home next year.
He always looks sad. ;D

Said it before - I'll say it again.
"Most over-rated player in the Tiger jumper"
Talent and skill to burn - heart the size of a pea.
I will not bat an eyelid if the Tigers were to consider trading him.
Remove all the RFC marketing hype, and the reality is this player has never performed to his potential. I doubt that he ever will.
Deledio is quality any way you look at it and to punt him would be madness. He's demonstrated on many occassions that he also has some ticker.
But he's not superman, he can't lift an ordinary, inexperienced side on his own.
He is lacking confidence though - as is Cotch and Jack.
Maybe it's all getting a bit much for them but whatever, none of these players are our real problem!

Deledio may have been a Number 1 draft selection, but his performances to date have been too inconsistent to say the least.
Me I'd drop him to Coburg for a stint there a couple of weeks at least. It could be that his development as a player was hindered by TW and the ineffective gameplan he had plus of course playing players out of position to boot.
He got killed against St Kilda but then so too did the rest of the midfield.
Of course I just wonder how much of an impact Wayne Campbell has had on Deledio and the other midfielders this season, given that last season Brian Royal coached them and they seemed to work far more efficiently under his coaching than that of Campbell's.
If Campbell wants the Senior Coaching role, then the Board I'd suggest would want to look hard and long at his midfield coaching season to date, because IMHO its been woeful.
