Lids is tagged every game is is going at 23-24 touches a game

[Yeahright]

You guys must have low expectations of Lids to think that's good enough

[Judge Roughneck]

Still got his best a couple years off

In a young team one of the few leaders

Been in a rubbish team much of his AFL life

[(•))(©™]

same could be said of Judd at Carlton

[gerkin greg]

Needs to kick a goal every week

[Judge Roughneck]

Nah Judd was born into Kerr cousins cox... wce comparison is more apt

Lids had hacks surrounding him

I think finals might be lids go 

[(•))(©™]

Born into makes no difference to how he has performed at Carlton.

[Judge Roughneck]

Were Carlton a better side in 08 than rfx 05?

[Yeahright]

Lids should be in his prime now lol

[Judge Roughneck]

Prime 26-28

Lids 26

13 - 26
14 - 27
15 - 28

He's not trucking too bad

[(•))(©™]

The point is not that he's not going so bad, it's that he could be going heaps better.

You disagree?

[Judge Roughneck]

I reckon he could be best player in comp

Like kouta when he was unstoppable for a bit

Deledio turns tag around

Dynamic Richmond midfielder Brett Deledio believes he has developed techniques to enable him to overcome the close checking of taggers this season.

Is he saving them for the finals?

 
Best half back flank we have

Best defense for something like 45 years

Third best in como

No shame in playing lids behind ball at times

He says he has developed the techniques to overcome tagging.
I don't so much agree he needs "techniques" but more a stuffing harder edge to his overall outlook to rising above a tag.
I see BD as a guy who has always been the best at any sport he chose to play as a kid and as such has developed, for want of a better word, a degree of complacency in his overall outlook.
In tough love terms, it's time for the boy to become a man.
Get stuffen angry son.
As for "doing my little bit to help us get the win" - You're so much better than that boy!!
Don't pee your career up against the wall.
It's you or them pal and of late it's been them.
We all know how good, athletic and naturally talented he is but this soft crap has got to stop.
Tortoise and the hare, brother......

great post
