Is going to be given every chance. We'll soon find out.
-
He will finally be recognised as elite of the comp this season
-
Not a burning q, err yup
-
Apparently not worthy of a leadership role either according to the ground peanuts.

Hey listen stupid, go back and search the threads, the one I started saying Deledeo must move to the centre and stay there.
Thread asks if he can become an elite midfielder...PEANUT!
Yes he can.....will it be at the RFC......who knows, I hope so.
He should only be in the leadership group when he commits to the club! That doesn't mean he can't lead.....he doesn't deserve it if he leaves.
Get it right.

In his short career I haven't seen anything to indicate that he can win his own ball. Seems to play 'bruise-free' football. I think he will make an excellent wingman but as to rotating through the stoppages and getting into the packs I'm unconvinced. :-\

Whhaaaaaaat? Deledio is one of the hardest players at the club. Tough as nails.

Are your serious stripes? Clearly you are but........
Suggest you have a closer look at his games. As starting point game -v- Demons last year late in the season, two massive bone jarring, goal saving tackles that happen just in the final qtr (plenty before that BTW)
Also check out the 2011 game against C'wood, St Kilda, Swans (both), then go back to 2010 there's some good stuff there....

And what was the game he did his elbow diving in and under and Richo was boundary riding and said he could be out for a long time only for Lids to come storming back on after the break? Tim Watson & Commetti were lauding his toughness in the box.

Not sure about that one gerks
But do remember him going off in a game (not sure if it was Eagles or Dockers) in Perth a couple of years back when he hurt his knee and they were saying he was gone and he was back on within 15 minutes
Which brings me to another game people should have look if they think he plays "bruise free footy" - Round 22 2009 against the Eagles, he was captain that night and gee he stood up, only bloke that did but that was the night that a lot of Tiger fans saw what a good leader he is
-
More than happy to be proven wrong but when he played midfield for us in the past I really saw him at the bottom of the pack feeding it out to a running team mate. He typically hovered around the outside of the packs. Maybe I have it all wrong and he will become the best midfielder in the team this year through his fearless attack on the ball....I hope for the teams sake he does :pray

Some valid criticisms based on earlier career efforts but Hardwick has rounded Lids as a footballer Stripes. Hard work, defence & 1%s are things he once didn't readily have.
He's matured as a footballer and has a better support crew in the middle compared with the Wallet years. The coaches expectations are higher too.
Let him loose as an onballer now and it's a whole different ball game.

I believe you're right MM1 Hope he tears it up this year. Just hope after he does he stays at the club....

He also won the Army award for the best courageous act in a season.

I'd love to see Lids consistantly at the bottom of packs feeding it out to our better ball users like Jackson & Edwards
:ROTFL :ROTFL

:huh. Lids is courageous. He regularly backs into packs and he plays injured when he has to. I would never question his intent. He played outside when he played midfield because he was one of about three players at that time that could actually deliver the fooz. His most damaging assets are his speed and his footskills. Outside mid is the ideal position for him.

Damn straight

I hear ya Stripes, it still has to be produced doesn't it? All this talk about instant midfield success. Hope he does produce it, but i saw enough against StKilda last year to make me question it. He was given BOG in that game by many (not for mine) but the clangers under pressure amazed me - he loves (by his own admission) to float free and free wheel - he's worked on that of course and does have silky skills when left alone, but in the midfield he may not get that luxury. Could be half a step back to take a full step forward later in the year or next year. Will be better in time - 2013/4 will be his chance to be Brownlow material.

Rot
i've seen Lids consistantly kick 50-60m off a step and hit a target whilst being bumped and tackled
both feet too
-
Then just for the moment we'll agree to disagree then Gerks. Being in Qld haven't had the pleasure of seeing any of those, they must occur off camera more then.
-
Unfortunately it is entirely possible that these events occured whilst Ch7/10/FS were showing a third slow-mo replay of someone drinking water on the bench ;D

That might explain it...... ;D
Still, will be watching for another of those svelte moments of which you speak.
