I guess you ignored my post. Please see the many Freo trades between 1994 and 2006. Please.
Traded Rory Lobb - [Traded to the Bulldogs for #30 and F2]

He's actually been very open, he accepted that Logue is probably gone but if things go south we will be happy to keep him
Said exactly what the deal was with acres and we will take the third
Said if Tucker gets opportunity elsewhere we will let him go
It's been a very honest period so far

They probably will, but clubs will pay a price .
We all know the AFL wants to follow the American sports in equalization and free agency etc.
Going back to that 1996 NBA draft. Allen Iverson was given a 3 year deal at 3 million a year. Pick 2 was given a 3 year deal at 2.75 million dollars a year. The 1st round picks are given 3 years.
Pick 60 or the last pick in the 2nd round is handed a 2 year deal at $500,000 a year
Think he’ll get trade once jackson is done.
They won’t want it too look like Lobb got traded to help get Jackson or so Melbourne can try to get more picks.
Think he’s probably worth something between 20-25 think freo will do the deal in the end

No, I have only just logged in. Fremantle have made some average trades I guess is your point.
That does not translate to overs for Lobb - an average player who is mentally weak; and Meek who has played 15 games in five years. It also does not mean you will land Jackson, a former pick 2, for massive unders like a lot of your supporters seem to think.
There is a massive discord between what your supporters think your players are worth, in comparison to what you think your trade targets are worth.

He is worth far to more to dockers then the dogs and Jackson arrival wont help dockers forward line that much, if I was the dogs I would be walking away from it.

Me personally, I don't want Luke Jackson after the after taste of the Jesse Hogan trade occured.
A fair bit of Freo fans don't mind Lobb to stay next season and goes for nothing.
Dockers fans want finals in 2023 and already know they are gonna lose Logue and Acres for unders.
Yes Meek has played 15 games in 5 years. He was a late pick in that 2017 draft. Was too skinny in 2018.
Should of got a debut game in 2019 in the last game of the season vs port in Adelaide but was injured.
Finally got games in 2021 and 22 and showed he is solid.
I will be disappointed when Logue and Acres leave.
Lobb, Meek and Tucker are all contracted until 2023.
Tucker is a free agent this time next season.

I doubt it
He is worth way too much to the Dockers
Literally their only reliable source of goals
He also walks for not much next year… think freo are just bluffing. They were going to trade Neale in 2018

Got a few goal kickers this season: Lobb, Taberner, Schulz, Walters and Frederick

So Lobb is kicking all the goals again pretty much
Hopefully Tabnerner stays fit. Amiss showed enough aswell if freo get a pick in top 25 they should take it

I still think the Dockers brass will keep him another year
Massive risk to take with your biggest goal kicker
Unless the aim is to target 2024 onwards
He never has.
Unfortunately Tabs can't be relied upon to get through a whole season. Which is why we have to hold on to old mate Lobb despite him being just an above average KPF.
He's too valuable to the club which is an indictment on the list management team. Amiss and Treacy with another 12 months under their belt may be right to take over on 2024 but it's asking too much in 2023.
Every player has a price.. freo would back in Tabnerner and Fyfe to kick those goals next year

I doubt the Dogs are going to get to that price though.
Freo won't budge over Lobb, hoping to keep wantaway swingman…

Western Bulldogs list manager Sam Power said they remained respectful of Lobb's contracted status but hoped to continue talking to the Dockers.
"He's indicated he would like to join us if a deal can be done," Power said.
MAJOR PLAYERS How Freo can use Trade Period to shape flag push
"His partner moved to Victoria during the year and he is keen to get over to Victoria and be with her.
We'll keep having discussions with Freo, but at the same time he's a contracted player."
Wow bit disappointed in power , was assured by doggies supporters he was one tough mofo at the trading table but he already sounds defeated and trade periods only a day old!, … seems Sam’s more powder puff than power !

29 year old, I'd have thought they'd trade him while he still has currency? 30 year old out of contract the following year, won't be worth much.
We've been told all throughout this thread that he already doesn't have currency

Haven't read it and doesn't change my point. Someone in contract has more currency then out. 29 year old turning 30 going to be worth more now than next year.

I disagree. Lobb kicked at least 30 goals.
Schulz kicked 30 goals and 19 behinds.
Frederick kicked 28 goals and 16 behinds.
Walters kicked 30 goals as well.
Taberner kicked 23 goals and 8 behinds from 13 games
but if he is already worth jack then theoretically whats better, taking jack this year and missing out on 30 goals or taking 30 goals next year and then still getting jack
