    A long plane trip to the east coast every second week might make it harder for him at 34-35.

      I didn't consider that
      But then again, I'm an Internet poster and Bevo is a premiership coach so draw your own conclusions.

        He may just play home games and important interstate games. Can see him giving the GABBA and Metricon a wide berth.
        Our 1954 premiership players are our heroes, and it has to be said that Charlie was their hero.

          Mitchell has 3 or 4 young kids....he probably appreciates the travel/night off occasionally!!

                Can do most things really well Lids think he would thrive in a good team.

                We've got more collateral than Geelong to get it done.

                  Talk is pick 18 and Hrovat or Honeychurch with the Vickery pick coming back our way. I'd be open to it only if his ongoing calf/achilles issues from recent seasons have been sorted.

                    I like this move. Not only does it make us better on field (he'd be an upgrade over pretty much everyone forward of the full back line down the side of the field), but with along with Wood and Boyd would make our merchandise catalogue the sexiest in the league.

                    What would/do we have to give up?

                        Sounds like Deledio wants to be anywhere but Richmond, can't blame him!

                          Based off his instagram he has done very well for himself.

                            Collingwood trying to trade players out they only recently traded in?

                            @barrettdamian: James Aish and Levi Greenwood have had their names floated on trade table by the Pies to at least one club

                              If true, they're a joke.

                                I like the sound of Deledio to the dogs. He is a gun when he's fully fit. The only problem is that Richmond will want Bontempelli and our first round pick to get the deal done.
                                They've done studies you know, 60% of the time, it works every time!
