    I agree, he suits us mainly because he has the ability to ruck and as a forward he often teases more than pleases.
    I suppose if he joins us I'll be excited, not sure I would shed a tear if we don't land him

    Not really interested in Lobb. Any tall we get needs to play back.

    I tend to agree, I also think in big finals he would go missing.

    I don't quite get why Freo couldn't match that.

    I'd be surprised if Bruce goes past the end of next year ie 2024.
    Darcy will need time.

    The word Ralph used that it is a lock.

    A lock to the Dogs?

    Personally I'm all for it. Naughty needs support, Marra isn't going to be a second key next year and Lobb would also solve our second ruck issue.

    Ralph also said that Smith is expected to sign a 2 year deal, just sorting out the $$$.

    Ironically I remember when Tim came to our club he was asked did he model his on anyone. His answer was Rory Lobb.

    Until Rory Lobb signs a contract with us he doesn't belong in this thread (if this thread even exists).

    I wasn't pro Lobbe but i've come around.

    It would be great for Jamarra and his development. He would end up getting the 3rd or 4th defender. Those type of defenders won't be able to go with Marra.

    We can use Lobbe in the ruck to help out Tim who can then also play forward on his break.

    Darcy can be used in defence as an intercept backmen. It would be great for his development as it is easier to learn the trade down back.

    Bruce could take some time to comeback from his knee if at all. He will need to work to get in shape as the game is still getting quicker.

    I am sold on Lobb.
