Dear Brett,

Get a clue mate, get some videos of Dane Swan, Gary Ablett and Jobe Watson and study them.

Learn how to shake a tag, for fudge sake mate.

Going to waste 10 years of amazing talent if you can't harden up and shake a tag.
Go Tigers!

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.

Its called gut running a mental toughness,  unfortunately both traits are Lids achilles heel. For a so called elite athlete he struggles compared to the Swans, Abletts and Selwoods. It almost looks like once tagged he sulks and cant be bothered doing anything about it.

Abblett & Watson or Swan have huge engines and they're are very very strong.
They just run & run & run and tough their way to 30 possies no matter how hard they're tagged.

Lids is an excellent talent but obviously not fit enough to run a tagger ragged and not strong enough to out bully him. Until he addresses this he'll always struggle and so will Cotch.
The club that keeps giving.

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
Go Tigers!
