A few weeks back i said i heard that Lobb is going to the saints. Supposedly still on the cards.

Kind of odd the reason Lobb pick us last year was because he had a connection with Bevo that come from Colin Young.

Ross got him to freo. So, maybe lobb wants to play for him. No idea why. Its just what i was told.

Well Lobb can play for Ross the Boss once his contract ends with us

 

[The Inbetweener]

Seems pretty far fetched but if it were true it wouldn’t be a disaster given the need to play Darcy, would give us some good draft capital too.

Can’t see it happening though.

 

[Bulldogs85]

Hearing Lohmann has seriously injured his shoulder/collarbone.

Around the state league Article on the AFL website

Kai Lohmann (11 disposals, five marks), who appeared to break his collarbone after landing heavily following a mark.

Might be enough to upgrade Brisbane's pick to St Kilda's pick

 

[Snarls Barkley]

Would be a strange one. I can’t imagine Lobb would want to request a trade for the third year in a row and I guess fifth(?) time in his career. Can’t remember if GWS let him leave first time or he was made to stay. I imagine if he leaves it would be because we want to do it as well which I don’t quite understand.

His last four weeks were very good. I don’t think it would be great business for us to let him leave. His first 15 weeks were awful but that sometimes happens when players go to new clubs. Found his feet later in the season.

 

[doggie dog]

Why no point? If the option is to send him back if needed or Lobb he should be the one every time,

He is a solid KPF but he isn't a 60+ a year guy that you wouldn't entertain moving back again.

He has very similar attributes to Moore physically so it isn't the worst comparison, Go back and watch some of his first year highlights and you will see it

And both have had some serious trouble in front of the Sticks when the game is on the line. Moore got moved back due to his sub standard kicking for goals.

 

[Struggle]

If we believe Darcy is ready and can get out of 3 more years of Lobb I'm okay with it.
Or if we decide to go Sweet with English as 3rd forward/ruck

More than happy to move him on for a 3rd rounder

 

[cecil]

If Lobb requested a trade that would be an absolute indictment on Bevo and the senior football figures at the club

How many indictments would that be now? it’s losing its meaning

 

[murphy's twin]

We must be getting a good deal if this has been agreed (Lobb)

What do we think that deal would be?

Collar bone not a big deal would be ready day one of preseason

I'd do it just to make things fun.

It's going to be a shit boring fortnight.

Pretty much done man. Will be announced in next few weeks

Hmmm...

Why am I getting a weird Grundy vibe outta this...?

Something is in the works for sure

Lose Lobb. Keep Sweet. Play English 50/50 forward ruck.

Perfect.

This makes soo much sense

English in the lobb role would be a massive upgrade

English in the lobb role would be a massive upgrade

And sweet in the English role would be such a massive downgrade that we'd be worse off overall.

People's expectations of Lobb are so unrealistic. A goal a game and 5 mins a quarter in the ruck is basically elite in that role.

decision you take the option immediately.

I'll drive his lanky ass to Moorabbin.

 

[Jeff 1975]

Sorry hearing about Lobb might be moving - hope not

However - I like the sound of Grundy and how-about throwing in Brown?

The expectation that he can take a mark on a guy he has 15cm on and perfect position is unrealistic?
