Injury Richmond star Brett Deledio in doubt for round one

[THE THIN MAN]

Pivotal Richmond star Brett Deledio is in doubt for the Tigers' season-opener against Carlton on Easter Thursday after missing a training session on Sunday.

The Tigers' mounting injury woes have been worsened by Deledio's injury, which is understood to be a soft-tissue problem. He has not been officially ruled out of Thursday's MCG blockbuster but it's believed he is also no certainty to play against Collingwood in round two.

Strapping myself in to be 1-3

Just rest him we need him for round two onwards. Who cares about nob4. Winning premierships is about player management

"Which is understood to be a soft tissue injury"...

Is there any evidence or are they just quoting the Age?

 

[Lsta062]

We really need him against Collingwood, Adelaide and West Coast. Rest him for Carlton if there is even a slight problem with him. If that means an ugly win in Round 1 (not a loss though), I'll take it.

 

[Tiger Toffee]

Didn't we address this yesterday.

 

[TheProwler]

Didn't we address this yesterday.

Clearly not enough for everyone though

 

[AlorraVex]

It's just headline journalism. He's fine -.-

"Which is understood to be a soft tissue injury"...

Exactly.
The club has said he will play

I hope so.

 

[Elton Johns Wig]

Clearly a limp into rooms yesterday, doesn't look major. Manage it for a week, be back for the ferals in round 2.

 

[Lsta062]

There is an article in the Herald Sun in which it says that Richmond rubbished this rumour

 

[Rodney Dangerfield]

Exactly.
The club has said he will play

The club will say anything.

 

[Rodney Dangerfield]

If there is honestly any hint of soreness which there obviously is then I'll *ng spew if he plays until he's ok.
Don't know why anyone would want any different.

 

[SunshineBoy]

Swallow people, swallow

 

[Pounce]

If Deledio is carrying an injury rest him until it is right. We can't afford him to make the injury worse and be out for a mass of games like last year.

 

[Charlie Pannam]

The club will say anything.

who is more believable the club or the media ?
Really Lids or no Lids shouldn't be an issue Thursday. But then after R1 it becomes a major issue.

 

[CoggaRules]

So who is out for R1? like we go in without Titch, Conca, Yarran and now Lids, because we are going to be the cutting edge idiots that rest him in R1 so as to be "fined tuned" for R2 and beyond....This is gearing up to become the good ol tiger cluster* that we are used to with the current brains trust. Its quite strange that prior to the announcement of the 2 year extension for Dimma, Yarran was a chance for R1, flying on the track, there was no word on any worries on Lids and he would be in for r1 and once the announcement was made, the arse is falling out of the side....buckle up dudes...this is gunna be one of those years that bring us back to the future...

Don't overreact, at this stage it's only Yazz and Conca as certain out's and considering that Yazz hasn't played for us yet and Conca never does it's hardly a blow to the side, maybe wait until the club say's something and not the media before blowing a gasket.
