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

[Tippett2Goal]

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

 

[Snuffaluphagus]

More of the typical early posturing stuff from Bell today "he's a required player" and all that.

I'm really confused as to who is chasing him so hard, he's going to cost some team an extortionate amount in salary and draft picks

Apart from the money factor you would think the Pies would chase him as a replacement for Cox, that way they could get 4 good games a year instead of 1 from their KPF.

Feels like a good way to get straight back into the s**t they just went through last trade period

A poster on our board, with mail that Lobb will be at Pies next year.

Sidebottom and Cox are headed to Suns to help sort cap issues.

If that mail is true Collingwood need to fire their list manager again

Wright has a legacy to address, but he'll still want bring players in where possible.

Is the Hawks Wright at Collingwood now?

 

[Strapping Young Lad]

Is the Hawks Wright at Collingwood now?

Yes, we just loaned him for a decade or so.

 

[Snuffaluphagus]

Yes, we just loaned him for a decade or so.

Sorry, you’ll have to speak plainly for simple me, did Wright start at Collingwood then go to Hawks and now he’s back at Collingwood

Yes, Wright is a Collingwood premiership player.

Im curious in what Collingwood has to offer for Lobb haha! No draft picks as they will be used on Daicos aha? Or am I wrong?

They will get picks for the players they trade out.

 

[Polo342]

They will get picks for the players they trade out. It's not rocket science.

Ahh do we think Sidebottom and Cox are worth much? Im unsure on there worth haha

 

[The 747]

They will get picks for the players they trade out.

The Pies would have to trade their future first here, unless Freo were happy to see the back of Lobb (and pay some of his salary) which doesn't make sense.

Cox is worth nothing, Sidebottom maybe worth a second to the GC. Interesting concept.

Fremantle won’t want future picks, as the fans including me are pissed off not playing finals for 6 seasons straight.

The club knows that membership will drop off and Fremantle financial situation will be threatened.

Pies will be trading more than Cox and Sidebottom you would think.

 

[DragoDelph]

Given where the wa talent sits, we may be happy with a late first and a couple of seconds, or a handful of seconds. Although if we could somehow manage to get a hold of the suns first, juicy.
may take our future first though

Dw he’s already quit

How would that sort cap issues?

lobb is on 700k

sidebottom would be on 500 or so
Cox is out of contract and should be delisted so won’t be on anyone’s cap

"Help sort." I don't think there would be a quick fix.

My point was more so that lobb is on more than Sidebottom

bringing in lobb’s salary doesn’t make sense for them

if they were to get rid of Sidebottom it would be for more draft capital which they will need for Daicos and also dib their academy player

Like Freo are stupid enough to pay half of his wages to the traded club for 2 or 3 years when he has another 1 or 2 years left.

Freos KPF stocks are not great. But having Lobb and Taberner are key forwards is better than nothing

 

[Pure_Ownage]

None of the other guys they will trade out have much value.

They cant get Lobb without trading a future 1st and as that might be top 5 theyd be mad to trade it.

 

[guruisatiger]

They will get picks for the players they trade out.

if daicos is nominated at pick 1
the pies will be about 1100 points 'in arrears....
they need to fix that deficit first

A late first and a couple of seconds, or a top 5 pick, for Rory Lobb?
