You can imagine that he could be stopped by a tagger once in a while. But it seems as though virtually every time he is tagged he is beaten. Mystifying for someone with so much skill......similar to Murphy from Carlton.
Yep spot on. In all honesty I cannot recall 1 single game in his career where he was able to beat a tagger.
In one game he went head to head with Goddard and beat him. Other than that he's never been able to beat a tagger.
I argue its the biggest issue at the club. If you can turn Deledio into an Ablett, Swan, Watson type player who is untaggable and can gaurentee a 25+ possesion game every week, we go from mid table to top 6. We don't win games when Brett isn't influencing. Need to rectify this very soon if we are fair dinkum.
Should be smashing him each training session with 2 taggers until he starts beating them on game day
