I read in the Age report this morning that the condition in the rules about Free Agency that may have been causing problems with Lids contract has now been massaged.

The Age reports that the rules now say "has already come out of contract once in the period after March 1 in his eighth season". Note the change is highlighted in yellow.
http://www.afl.com.au/news/newsarticle/tabid/208/newsid/130820/default.aspx

This allows Lids to sign immediately a new contract from end of this seaason till 2104 and retain Unrestricted staus at that time. He can't technically sign an "extension" of his current contract but i don't think that's a problem - just pre-sign a new one running from end 2012 till end 2014.

All good news and sensible though I note the AFL has not as yet updated the rules.

lids stated not that long ago that, that particular issue, was not actually an issue for him in resigning.
“For My thoughts are not your thoughts,
Nor are your ways my ways,” says the Lord.
 
“For as the heavens are higher than the earth,
So are my ways higher than your ways,
And my thoughts than your thoughts."

Fair enough Al.
I'm just happy they've sorted what to me was a silly phrase in the original rules, regardless of who was affected.

A few games like this in the real stuff and you can't blame Lids holding off a touch. A few more $$$ added to his new contract and a few more cuddle from Dimma  ;D.

Lids had 33 disposals and 4 goals which is an impressive return in itself  but it was all done in just 65% gametime  :o. So he only played 2/3s of the match lol.

33 disposals ( 73% efficiency, 14 contested so not all soft possies out the back )
5 marks with 3 inside forward 50
3 tackles
6 clearances
7 inside 50s
4 goals 3 behinds
65% T.O.G.

Don't know about the last 2 seasons off half back but I recall when he was primarily a midfielder, his % of contested vs uncontested ball was always high by afl standards and a lot higher than the perception he's a cherry picker...
