Re: Is anyone else concerned?

Not concerned, we would get a ripper deal out of him, like Otto?? 8)

Melbourne supporter here and sometime poster to this forum.

Interested in this thread and in my opinion Richmond should do what they have to do to keep deledio at the club. However from my point of view I would like my club to all they could to get hold of him. I am not talking about offering picks 1&2 or even either of those for him. What I would expect the club to do throw a sizable figure at him and get him thinking. get him a bit unsettled.

He is out of contract and if we could drive a wedge between him and the club then we are in the position to make a trade offer on our terms or get him to nominate for the PSD.

I am presenting this from the perspective of an outsider looking in. might get a few of you looking outside the box.

$2m over three years with some incentive payments available in the last season of the the contract. never know, might get a nibble at that from him.

Something like this would at least stir the pot a little.

Stirring the pot? I think you left the 'E' out of your name

Put the onus on him & see what happens....

Too important a role, still has aspects of his game and his approach to the game he is figuring out. No need to lump him with the role just because he is our best player and we are desperate. Newmans, Maxwells, Vandenbergs, Johnsons, Harley's etc all get captaincy roles for solid reasons, it's not always the best player.
 
Please tell me Lids is staying?

Carltank supporters are all over him like the hyenas they are.

PLease Lids don't leave this club when we need you.

If he went to Carlton Gibbs or Murphy would be coming to the RFC.
 
Re: Please tell me Lids is staying?

If his heart is not in it theres no much we can do.
Hopefully with the easy run hes had at the club getting paid $$$,$$$ and not really putting in hes got the guts to sign on and show us that he can consistently play good footy.

Carltank supporters can wish all they like.They are not the ones to make that decision.
 
Re: Please tell me Lids is staying?

Was one of our better players last night so I would say his heart is still with the Club.

If Carlton want him they had better give us 3 first round draft picks for him as well as Chris Judd. ;D

Re: Please tell me Lids is staying?

wouldnt suprise me if he walks.strong rumoors that pies are very hot on him
 
Re: Please tell me Lids is staying?

Lids will stay. He loves Richmond. He was smart in wanting to wait for the new coach and to see where the club is heading.

I agree and I think Hardwick will be the best thing that ever happened to Lids

I reckon Hardwick philosophies will ensure Lids does the things he needs to do to become a truly elite footballer.
 
In the article on the website today he's quoted and from what he said it sounds like he's staying.
