If we are also looking at Nankervis pick 38 would achieve that. So in effect it would be Lids and 27 for Caddy and Nankervis.

B. is a win for everyone really.  Geebung get Lids, the bloke will be sublime in a good side.  Caddy goes alright and is young but he isn't Lid's sak skin yet.

After all, Owls are supposed to be wise right?
“I find it nearly impossible to make those judgments, but he is certainly up there with the really important ones, he is certainly up there with the Francis Bourkes and the Royce Harts and the Kevin Bartlett and the Kevin Sheedys, there is no doubt about that,” Balme said.

Q. What's the best result for Richmond in regards to Deledio from here?

ASHLEY BROWNE: I think he plays on for the Tigers next year but even now, five months out, it shapes as a 'lame duck' season before he moves on to Geelong in 2018. If the Cats had any currency at the draft, they'd do the deal, but they have none.

Deledio deal looks a long shot (Geelong Addy)

Tiger deal looks a long shot

NICK WADE
Geelong Advertiser
17 October 2016


GEELONG is almost resigned to missing out on Richmond midfielder Brett Deledio as the standoff between the Cats and Tigers lingers into a second week.

Deledio, 29, is looking increasingly likely to remain at the Tigers next season unless negotiations between the two clubs take an unexpected twist before Thursday’s deadline.

The Cats do not have high draft picks that would appeal to the Tigers and they are also unwilling to part with Josh Caddy in a direct swap.

“The main thing is it’s not suiting Richmond because they’re not willing to trade a contracted player,” Geelong recruiting manager Stephen Wells said obn Sunday night.

“(The trade) is as unlikely as it was at the start of the trade period. It’s no more likely to happen now than it was at the start of last week.”

Deledio becomes a free agent at the end of next season.

Carlton want Cockatoo for Touhey....would actually prefer him from Geelong than Caddy - kid will be a gun...

Rumour is Geelong can't afford Lids' full annual salary (similar to Selwood & Dangerfield's) and so if a trade is to be done, we would need to pay part of Lids' salary for 2017.

Just our luck for Deledio to nominate a club whose first pick is 38....

Why not Trade Lids to Geelong and Lennon to Carlton. With Caddy to us and pick 38 and Touhy to Geelong.

Pay $200,000 of Deledio's wage next year. We have to pay him if he stays.

we use 38 on Nankervis.

Gee - I thought trade period finished on Thursday at 2pm.

The way you guys carry on its all over.

If they stuff it up after that then fair enough.

But you guys are way OTT with the Chicken Little hysteria.

With 3 days to go.....
