Deledio off to GWS in exchange for future first & third round picks [confirmed]

[one-eyed]

The future of Brett Deledio remains unclear, with the two-time best and fairest winner interested in moving to Geelong, but the Cats not yet in a position to either fit him under the salary cap or provide the Tigers with adequate compensation.

Steven Motlop is seen as the player most likely to be moved to enable Geelong to open up room and secure Deledio or even Carlton’s Zach Tuohy, whom the Cats are also interested in. Tuohy has a three-year offer on the table from the Blues.

Spot on as this is the info i had confirmed yesterday. Lids should be playing his career out with the Tigers.

That would be a start. Was told Lids for Motlop was and is never going to happen!

There was some 'talk' suggesting bombers are interested in Deledio this afternoon, at this early stage wide of mark.

"Geelong have some pretty complex salary cap issues that probably preclude them from getting Deledio" - Tom Browne on 7 news tonight.

Oh this is the same Tom Browne that stated on Tuesday night he was heading down the highway.

Complex? What do they think it is? The latest propulsion formula for the Elon Musk's Martian spaceship?

They either have space or they don't I would have thought. Maybe the would need to front end and backend the contract, leaving the middle bit down or do something like that, but it would hardly be difficult.

Good old Patty filling his pockets down Corio way.

Sounds like Essendrugs pretty complex performance enhancement program, any of collingwoods trades, or the punt road building..that's a pretty complex too

Callers saying Lids was seen at real estate agents in Torquay and Ocean Grove sourcing places to buy.

His brother, Matt, plays footy for Torquay and looks a lot like Lids.

Jon Ralph also feels it might be time for Richmond to let go of Brett Deledio, so they can sign Dion Prestia from the Gold Coast Suns, while not giving up their prized pick six in this year’s draft.

“I suppose my point is Brett Deledio is 29, he is 30 in April…I love him as a player, I’ve loved his durability,” he said.

“I would think Richmond aren’t going to win a Premiership in the next three years and anyone who thinks they will, it’s a pipedream.

“Maybe the tough decision is to say Brett, we will help trade you to the Gold Coast or to a third party, that allows them to get in a youngster in Prestia and also keep that pick six.”
