AFLW 2024 - Round 10 - Chat, game threads, injury lists, team lineups and more.
I have never bailed a player up in a parking lot. But i did ask one player back in the 2000's, to step outside.
That week, he was BOG.
And went on to a higher level for his career. And became one of our leaders on/off field a couple of seasons later.
Some have the balls, and some don't. Some just play tiddle-dee-winks on the keyboard, but understand little.
If we are in the situation having to deal with Freo I imagine we’d try get Lobb coming to us since he wants to leave anyway. I’m not a big fan of his but he replaces the ruck/fwd that Jackson is and is best 22 straight away. We still need ruck depth on top but that will be late pick stuff.
Recovering from having his jaw broken in the ammos. King hit while celebrating a goal I think… I cant copy and paste links on my phone but easy to find sorry.
I’m not a massive fan of Lobb either, but we need a ready made fwd/ruck to play our structure while Gawn is still top of his game. JVR may come on and be the long term solution but we need a quick fix now.I am not interested in Lobb. Although he has been good this season, I feel like it is an anamoly and will regress next year. He will be 30 next season so he does not fit the age profile of our best 22.
We already have B. Brown, M. Brown and T-Mac as our KPF stocks that will be the wrong side of 30 next season. Then our next generation is either not up to it (Weid) or unproven (JVR).
I would rather be seeking a KPF aged around ~25 years for life after Ben Brown / T-Mac.
This talk is really interesting; with Rivers currently biding his time at Casey.If we are in the situation having to deal with Freo I imagine we’d try get Lobb coming to us since he wants to leave anyway.

If Port want to tear it down with a new coach next year I wonder if Charlie Dixon could be available for a bargain?
Id want him to do a medical before we looked at trading for him but id much rather him than Lobb as a short term fix for our contested mark role.
Yep, first experienced KPF somebody's suggested that I think ticks a lot of boxes
Not a fan. I reckon he’s a bit of a cat and wilts when the going gets tough. His pay packet probably makes it moot. But I agree that he’d be better than Lobb and it’s objectively a good call.2nd in contested marks in the league last year, what am I missing? Seems the obvious fit for our bombs away game style into the f50
Yeah agreed - I still think targetting somebody like Amartey is a better option. But I don't want McStay (ability for the price) or Tex (personality) anywhere near the footy club.Obviously the problem being hes under contract and Port would need to want to trade him. But yes, hes one I think could be gettable if Port figure their premiership window is closed and they want to start getting younger.

or even Hayden McLean, we could probably shake one of those two loose i reckon.If Jacko goes I wouldnt mind Amartey either.
I was laughed off this board when I suggested him as a DFA last year!Watching GC a bit this year and Chol and Casboult are significantly better than any of our cobinations
Casboult would dominate in our setup where we just bomb it on his head 15-20 times a game

Good call then, as he's more or less playing career best footy at 32I was laughed off this board when I suggested him as a DFA last year!
