Richmond great Matthew Richardson admits he's not convinced Brett Deledio will be at the club next season.
He questioned whether his former teammate was currently "feeling the love" at Tigerland.
Deledio has been thrown up as a possible trade target this summer as the Tigers regroup from an unexpectedly poor season.
Richardson said on 3AW the lack of conviction surrounding Deledio's future at Richmond from both player and club suggested something was going on.
"If you listen to the language coming from his manager – from the footy club – nobody seems to be able to be categorical on it?" Richardson questioned on Sports Today.
"Yet, he's got a contract?
"I'm just wondering whether 'Lids' is just not feeling the love from Richmond at the moment."
