Swap Lobb for Coniglio and wear the extra 200k in cap space. No need for Freo to add anything.

You don't pay pick 13 for a middle ground player turning 29

And you dont trade one of three KPFs on your list with two years on his contract for anything other than overs.
I'm not saying 13 straight up but GWS will be happy to push that pick up or out because it's in danger of being eaten by Fahey, they value picks differently then other clubs.
If Lobb goes back to GWS we will get a deal that everyone on BF will come on here screaming about

Isn't Lobbs partner now working for the VRC in Victoria?
But he likes the look of going to Sydney?
He either lives a double life or I'm missing something

You may for a middle ground player who's 27 though...

It depends how much cap you pay, if your only letting him go for a good pick than your paying ~half of his contract
13 will be before Fahey

Who?
I'm assuming you didn't mean middle ground as plays in the middle of the ground.
If his partner is living in Victoria, any club on the east coast would be preferable to a WA club imo.

But wouldn't a Vic club be preferable?

Probably isn’t one interested at the deal required.
Yes but what if there are no Victorian clubs keen? You'd probably take the next closest option.

WBD making a mistake for not going for Lobb and get Freo to pay a large % of his salary.
WBD should trade a future 1st for Lobb + get Freo to pay 350k - 500k of his salary + points for Darcy.

Why? He’s not a particularly good ruck and he doesn’t want to play ruck anyway.
Would be no point taking Lobb whilst English is still on the list imo.

Coniglio 2 years into a 7 year, $7M contract...
I wonder if that's front or back ended? If it's backended, Freo would want something coming back their way as icing in a Lobb for Coniglio trade!!
Either way, not many of these monster contracts work out for the club... teams should seriously stop doing it.
There should be a cap on contract lengths of 5 years for starters.

Yep, they may as well start with pick 2, We will take all the salary dumps.

He's not an A grade ruck, but he's definitely above average in the league as a solo ruck.
Reckon he is a meaningful upgrade over the likes of Ceglar, Ladhams, Lynch, whoever else is available. Probably the best available at the moment.
Who cares about what he wants to anyways lol, this is his job, I don't tell my boss the only areas I'm happy to work in.

Yes and don’t bid on Darcy thank you please.
GWS have been happy to take a trip up the board to get a player that suits them.
if Mac Andrew is their target maybe they can go backwards and get Lobb in.
2 and a 22 2nd round (around say 30 or 32) for 6 and Lobb

I’d much prefer Ladhams.
