Feel for Lobb...
Every one else gets to go where they want... But he has to stay, after requesting a trade 2 years in a row...

Also it's good to see a club enforcing their contracts...
He will more than likely get to the Dogs I reckon.

Freo have to say that now to ensure the messaging to the Dogs is that if you want a contracted Lobb then you better be prepared to pay overs as they themselves need good draft picks to secure Luke Jackson now the Eagles are sniffing around him.

It looks like there will be a lot of posturing around these deals, hopefully we get our Acres deal done quick, straight swap for Liam Jones compo pick!
 
Not sure why we think this is a good thing. If Acres is as good a player as everyone seems to think, then why wouldn’t Adelaide want a better deal?

Bargain basement deals are usually reserved for unknowns.
Freo you mean....

They need draft picks & salary cap room for Luke Jackson to come in.

Acres is out of contract and has requested a trade, they might as well get something for him.

Acres isn’t brilliant but is an improvement on what we currently have and brings real work ethic and much needed size to the wing role.
 
Hypo-thetical.

Say Meek says, I wanna go to Carlton. FRE say ok, Blues we want X for Acres and Meek in a package.

What is X? 28 and Jones pick?
Sounds like we'd be playing for a sheep station.

why chase average players that don’t have the skill set we need to take the next step !
Agree.
Was trying for a mildy amusing pun
Meek = sheep
And sheep stations are on acres of land....



Yeah....

Be a bit rude of Adelaide to ask for anything….

As he plays for Freo you had better ask them..... :think:
Yeah I meant freo but you had better cut me some slack as I had just posted this around 2:00am, having just woken up on the couch after having fallen asleep during a very boring Prelim… o_O

I thought just because he nominated Carlton FREO 😉 could still play hardball for a better pick if there are other clubs interested. I’d have thought * might be.

Not everybody, I recall Ryan OKeefe from the Swans wanting a trade to the Blues and the Swans said no. More recently Papley requested a trade to Blues and again the Swans said no.

Papley is a free agent next season ... wonder if we go again, or if we have the money to get him over!! Would still love him

Player has to agree to a destination though which rules out * for most players.....

Freo can’t demand too much based on the low offer they tabled and the fact he is out of contract.
