Recommitted Rory Lobb [trade is off, staying at Fremantle]

[Tippett2Goal]

Reportedly GWS contract offer wasn't what Lobb thought he was worth

 

[clivenator26]

Dont listen to trade radio so sorry cant comment.

You don’t listen yet said Rendell would know more than BF posters? Maybe tune in for 2-3min while he is on and then you’ll realise how much of a clown he is.

 

[HairyO]

Sorry, I haven't kept up with the thread - but what are the reasons for Lobb potentially returning to GWS?

Does he just miss it and want to go back or is there an issue with Freo?

He wants to return to a club where they pay lots of money for not much effort.

Young is pissed off because its player managers who are meant to leak things to the media, not club list managers.

Wow you really hold a grudge

Against 2 clubs needlessly devouring all the young talent in the country and then wasting it... yes, yes I am.

You weren’t this shirty until Cogs said no to your clubs bigger deal.
Get over it.

 

[raffrox]

I'm sure Rendell will cop a ton of criticism for this one. But what would he know about football compared to Bigfooty posters.

You mean the guy that just couldn't believe that SPS was worth only a pick in the 50's.

Sure.

Football genius.

No. Ive been against the idea of GCS and GWS since before they were formed. They were always going to be giant money sinks with no soul. The players especially know it, which is why they simply dont care.

I think you'll find that's a proper troll account who is well know to the forums.

May have switched allegiances a few times, pretends that they can't spell or use punctuation properly.

We gave you 2 number 1 picks and you forced them into early retirement.

 

[Dockers26]

And out of nowhere Rendell with this left turn

And this is way Rendell is no longer gainfully employed in football...except for trade radio...which doesn't really count.

I think GWS have to give up 13 or it wont happen. I know that is overs, but Freo are lacking talls.

They won’t give that up only.

13 for 19 maybe and only because 19 holds that special extra value. Then would we even do it?

I just hope he stays. Even his flaky up and down performances are better than any kid drafted.

Another good Swannies bloke Gg.

Weve got to keep our Swans quota up at Freo.

Hey you leave st cicaritz alone.

Oh.

Nope

 

[Shadow89]

Curious as to where all the 'Geelong are being horrible and should release Clark for welfare reasons', Freo supporters, sit on Lobb wanting to leave?

Seems they're perfectly happy to hold him to his contract unless they get 'significant overs' - for a 29 year old injury prone player.

Funny coulda sworn we were derided for doing the same...but Pick 13, or Sam Taylor

is a perfectly reasonable request for Lobb - if you're a Freo supporter.

Must just be my imagination...

At least Lobb actually plays games of football when he is fit

 

[Pure_Ownage]

No but he plays at WAFL standard in the afl most days.

That said tall forwards carry trade currency above other player types even when they are BOG average

Hold on. Honestly mate what is Clark actually worth. Keep in mind he has played 14 games in 2 years....

Context is something that you fail to understand.

No actually, it's something you fail to understand - and you are exactly who I was referencing with that comment.

Apparently a Top 4 side not playing a talented kid drafted only 3 years ago warrants you making 'welfare' comments over and over again...but when Lobb wants to return to his former club because he'd be happier there - it's crickets.

Basically telling you flat out to shelve your hypocrisy and refrain from making your little welfare comments in the future - as every club (including your own) has a right to hold their player to contract. It's better for the comp as a whole.

 

[Shadow89]

At least Lobb actually plays games of football when he is fit

In a bottom 8 side where 3 players you delisted this year were getting constant games. It means nothing when the competition for spots is nowhere near as fierce.

Do you think Lobb would have got games if Hawkins and Cameron were in your forward line alongside Taberner? I very much doubt it.
