surely not. what the eff is the point of it if a club has to give up something? that's exactly the same as trading for a bloke who is out of contract.

The AFL hand out the compensatory draft picks from their magic hat.

The point is that he becomes a restricted free agent at the end of 2012 so he comes under different rules, he isn't being poached under the out of contract rules, he is being grabbed under the restricted free agent rules which means, we get sweet FA if they did make a play but yeah I see the point about the magic hat and it would be up to the AFL but I don't know what they would rule on it and would prefer not to test the water frankly.  We could argue that if they are using their magic bucket of money for the start up then he should come under the magic compensation draft pick hat...

I was under the impression that they would use the same rating system as they did for the out of contract players the went to the GC and GWS??

If you were contracted to work for your employer till October 2012, had the option to extend your stay for another 3 years for an extra $50,000 now or wait until October and extend for an extra $150,000, what would you choose to do?  :whistle

And the AFLPA are still throwing tantrums. Isn't that why a heap of AFL players across the comp only signed one year deals recently?

Not really  ... with Free Agency on the horizon the landscape's changed, tohugh in Lids case we hold all the aces  ;D

Logic tells me that his management will insist that he looks at all offers

I'd be very surprised if he leaves  ;D

Lids 150 games turns 25 in April next year.

He has potentially 10 years left in him so could get 300 - 350 games for Richmond (higher still if there are multiple finals).

Depends what floats his boat about playing AFL. If it is money then another club is going to come along and offer him more than we can especially if we do become a top 4 side.

But he has set himself up to spoken about with the best players this club has had. Does that mean anything to him?

I thought you people were taught not to think negative thoughts?

Deledio will stay. Daniel Jackson will make sure of it.
