I reckon the Lobb debate has gotten a bit polarised and the truth lies somewhere in between. I don't think he impacts the scoreboard as much as you'd like for someone you'd want as your second forward. But his marking alone would be a great value to us. He'd be a great get out kick down the line. And a quality deep target. He'd walk into our side right now. But given Moore is the better ruck and would probably relieve Grundy over Lobb; I think it's a question of Reid/Schache/Lobb? Lobb for his output would cost too much I reckon.

he aint going anywhere I dont think.

Schache, Wright would be the prime targets for me. Given GWS want Kelly is there a chance we could prise out Patton....possibly.

Ultimately we just maybe better served by going to the draft and waiting for a couple of years as everyone going to cost a fortune in draft picks. Just cant see who the club would let go that another club would accept in return. The only way we could do it is if we finished low enough that we could somehow swap around the picks.

Moore a better ruck than Lobb? Moore has rucked for 2 games!

Yeah I reckon Moore has Lobb covered in the ruck. Lobb barely wins hitouts. Moore already wins hitouts to advantage. He showed that right from his first game in the ruck, I think in his first season.

It depends where we finish and how high our pick is I'd imagine. At what point would we better served sending our first to Brisbane for Schache? Or better off going to the draft?

Snoop Dog you had suggested we have been into a tall forward for a while. Does the bolded mean we / they have gone cold or just your opinion regards direction?

IF Tippett is that Shit. Why does he get games for the Swans?
Probably because he's on good money and they not only want him to come good, they need him to come good. If he's firing he allows Buddy and Reid to get slightly less attention. And he's their relief ruck as well.

Who's not to say IF He did come to Collingwood he would find good form as at his Best he is a Gun

I love how they bag him and say Sydney getting him was a bust but thrn in the same breath they say he's exactly what Collingwood need...if can't deliver at Sydney could you imagine a big club like Collingwood. No thanks.

I would not mind Tippett on the Cheap

Shhhhhhh, he is apparently one of GWS' most important players and suffers because of all the other players in his team who are better than him.....
