Lost count of the times we said that during the Buckley years; only for any given player listed as such to vanish until the following pre-season...
Hey, is Sean Rusling still on the injured list…rumour is he’s going to be a gun :wink:
Rusling at what 40 now, with one arm working, is still a better prospect on the lead than Frampo or AJ

I guess I'll just say this.

Lobb came in for Naughton and kicked a goal from 12 touches.

Ash came in for Cox/Checkers and had 4 touches.

So on a night like tonight, it would be handy to have a Lobb.

I'd rather have haemorrhoids hanging out of my arse like a bunch of grapes, than Lobb

Pretty sure that he plays with a pebble in his boots and it makes him limp
I term the current Collingwood attack based strategy “Unceasing Waves” like on a stormy and windy day with rough seas. A Perfect Storm ☔️

Cameron was valiant in the ruck but he needed back up. I’m still a hard no on Lobb, hoping we get games into the Smit kid. BUT lobb might have been good for us last night.

This year, there's been a lot of talk about Doggies players leaving the club or wanting out. Some of that has been based on the coach staying (Sam Draper comments).

All these players have been mentioned as possible outs in some form this year;
Caleb Daniel, Rory Lobb, Sam Darcy, Jack Macrae, Tim English, Bailey Smith. I really can't see Darcy leaving, but gees wouldn't that be a nice get.

Even Ugle-Hagan and Liberatore were talked about until recently signing extensions. Treloar and Richards are signed on until 2025, but ask yourself, would you welcome Treloar back?

Every club in the comp would welcome Bont, and even his future has been questioned by Fox Sports very recently. (He is signed on until 2025).

I'm really not that keen on Lobb, but is there anyone else at the Dogs we can try to get over?

And as far as Keane, get him. I thought he was good today Vs Hawks. If he wants back and the trade is fair, then go for it. (I know it's a bit awkies tho)

It's been about 5 years since we welcomed back a midfielder with genuine watercolour landscape ability. So, I ask - since Treloar's football remains a complete waste of space - can he paint?

Whatever we do if we trade more future first round picks for mids or small forwards then it will be very disappointing.

Harry Perryman GWS should be our #1 Target.
