Dunno if the is already a BD thread, feel free to merge.
I'm a bit perturbed by some BD critics, I feel like I'm watching different games sometimes.
To me, Deledio is growing in stature by the week. Rarely wastes a possession, has it all, class, tough, and increasingly, leadership. Being the way we are at the moment, he is tagged to within an inch of his life, week after week. His development reminds me a lot of Hodge pre HFC success. Kept plugging away, getting steadily better, asserting himself verbally more and more.
I have no worries what so ever with BD. Keeps working hard and doing his job in spite of strangling tags and little support, I see a superbly developing leader.
