[Nothing]

if rory lobb requested a trade back to freo. what would everyones reaction be

Lobb plus 3 1st round picks for a 4th round. Deal.

In December "Lobb, you're delisted. Here's your money."

Freo CBC or North Fremantle?

 

[FreoGirl]

He actually needs therapy…

 

[gaskin]

Freo CBC or North Fremantle?

He'd fit in with those arse clowns at East Freo.

Rory is a campaigner. The tenants at Moss Street are campaigners. They fit well together.

East Freo is a great club and have provided the AFL with some amazing players

East's might be campaigners, at least they are not ****ing campaigners like soufs

 

[Taylor]

Lobb can play out hid career at West Fremantle.

in fairness , South gave us Josh Head

 

[FreoGirl]

Lobb can play out hid career at West Fremantle.

West of Rotto?

Lobb is not AFL standard anymore.
Has declined dramatically even since he was here (and I wasn’t a fan of him even then).

Very lucky boy he is contracted next year. This will definitely be his last AFL contract.

He has quite a few clubs that have shown interest in trading for him.

He looks tragic right there; Another career destroyed by his manager.

I’ve gone from laughing to genuine concern. He brought a lot of this upon himself, but he’s clearly not very bright. I agree about his manager.

 

[heypenny]

I wouldn't begrudge him, if it wasn't for his pot shots after leaving.

Statistically, he had his career best season in 2022, with big moments in a young team which played, and won a final. Yet he got too big for his boots. He wanted more, and claimed he wasn't being coached correctly.

I wonder if Colin Young ever reflects on putting his clients on a worse career path. Logue, Lobb and Hamling all would have been better off from a football perspective if they stayed at Freo. The short term cash hit is not worth it if your career is stunted.

Leave the North Fremantle magpies out of this lol

Do you think this guy would really reflect on his decisions in any self critical or empathetic sense?



He’s too busy thinking he’s the smartest guy in the room and talking his clients into making an extra dollar to care about how their actual football careers are impacted IMO. He’s a snake and his biases against certain clubs and for chasing money and winning a deal on paper get passed onto his clients because he’s a sweet talker and has them thinking he’s in their corner and knows what’s best for them.

I was thinking the same thing about his clients the other day. Take a guy like Griffin Logue who was a loyal clubman who loved the dockers, from WA. Obviously gets a better offer but lots of players do and stay for loyalty and success - but he’s being pushed all the way to North by Young who wants another trade win and bonus and had Griff wrapped around his finger.

Then you have someone like Lobb (thank god he left though) being convinced the bulldogs of all teams were a good fit cos they came in with an extra year, since it’s all about winning the deal, not playing football. And pretty sure Lobb was just dumb enough to mouth his and Young’s private discussions about being ‘poorly coached’ at Freo etc to the public.

I feel a bit sorry for Logue tbh.

He wouldn't come back here.

Would west coast want him.

Now that would be Larry king comedy gold

That was before his last round of public self-entitled BS. There might be someone willing to take a punt but it would not be for very much.
