His partner's dad, who used to work at Freo, offered her a nice job at the new organisation he works at in Melbourne.

If that is the integrity that said former Freo CEO operates with then i am happy we have seen the last of him.

I doubt anyone is actively pursuing Lobb. It’s clearly Freo putting it out there to gauge interest. Worth a pick in the 20s, but given his monster contract id say more so in the 30s.
We’d be looking at more than a second round pick for Lobb. Lobb’s contract could be renegotiated for 3 years for $1.75Million. The reports I keep reading indicate about $700k per year so likely slightly overstated by our good media. We’ll be keeping him if a decent deal isn’t presented.

I’d be targeting Richmond’s pair of second rounders.

26, 28 > Lobb, F3 (which on points rates Lobb as end of first round draft pick).
26 > Clarke
6, 25, F2 > Cerra, 27, F4
27, 28 > 17, WB F2

6 (Erasmus) 8 (Rachele), *17 (JVR), *25 (Williams)

We can use one of our three future 2nds (Frem F2, Carl F2, WB F2) to trade up:

ie Brisbane 14 & 18 > 17, 25 and F2
 
If Richmond are interested in Cerra and Lobb, than 7, 15 and 26 would be a win. We would have 7, 8, 15, 26, 27. A lot we could do with that hand. We could even trade 26 and 27 for Bulldogs 17. I would even pay half of Lobbs salary for that deal.
 
General opinion from non aligned footy people is that Jordan Dawson is worth a pick in the mid teens, that being the case Jordan Clark is really worth no more than 27. Freo may have to stump up slightly more for Geel to appease their fans but it should be a value in the 20's no more. If Geel baulk call their bluff.
Why would Geelong bluff when they can just be clear about what is needed for them to release Clark? They will still be chasing finals and Clark can be useful for them. A new recruit won't be.

I'm not worried about Geelong's list managers strategy in this, I'm worried about ours.

Rory is already bringing in around $700K, so can't be about money. Either one of two thing the way i see it. 1. He's not happy at Freo/or wants to keep the misso happy and/or 2. He's been given a nudge and Fremantle have a set plan in place to bring a similar type into the club. I'm in favor of the 1st, which pisses me off considering what we did to recruit him.

I get it mate - we don't agree on this. Let's just see what happens hey?
I've said it will be a value in the 20s for Clark and I stand by it - and yeah....... "it's just my opinion"

IN???????Fyfe has used words such as "exciting" and other ITK's have hinted at something big happening behind the scenes. No-one yet has anything concrete, although rumours abound.

Club is keen to keep it's first rounder(s) this year so anything would be for futures/players/late picks.
All we know is a forward on the outer with their current club. McDonald? Fisher?

It could be about the money (so quite likely is) as in his manager wants to try to get a longer deal done now while he has trade value.

Is two years on 700k then possibly being punted better than 3 years on 400k and living with your partner where she wants to be?
