    Great to have Rory join the mighty Bulldogs. Can't wait to see him, Naughts & Jamarra tear teams apart.

      I assumed you were middle aged in the early 70s BAD.

      My old man went apparently. You might as well say you were there BAD, I doubt anybody could verify it.

              One thing I noticed about Lobby is that he is a good leader for a forward which is a plus.

                I got told off by Lobby Loyde once. He caught me doing something I shouldn't have been doing at his studio on Richmond when he was producing a Painters and Dockers album and I happened to be hanging around.

                    I remember him from the "Wild Cherries".

                      My brother went. He died in 2015 and I miss him heaps. He loved Billy Thorpe. There was an excellent exhibition at arts centre - about Australian music history and they had a large booth you could enter and they played Sunbury festival footage with surround footage and audio. Might be still there. I spent time watching it a number of times and think I spotted my brother!! Also had countdown footage with Molly, that was fun too.

                        It involved a girl I'd met the night before and amphetamine.

                        He wasn't that stressed we were doing what we were doing per se, more the fact that the studio had been raided by the cops the week before and they'd promised they'd be back

                          Welcome Rory!! One if the few GWS players I could stomach. He was a different cat then and now. I think he’ll turn around the doubters. Go the Lobster.

                              I used to think that Lobby Loyde was one of those Skyhooks/Aztecs lame type musicians for like my entire teenage and early adult life. Then the Coloured Balls LP got re-issued a few years ago which I listened to without knowing the band members, which finally let me on to how good he was.

                                Swan Districts ruckman Rory Lobb is an AFL draft long shot

                                SWAN Districts big man Rory Lobb will complete a fairytale arrival into the AFL if he is recruited on Thursday after a rapid rise into the draft spotlight.

                                The exciting Lobb, 20, started the 2013 season in the WAFL reserves after an invitation to try his luck from his former amateurs coach Andrew Pruin, who handles the Swans' seconds

                                The athletic follower with a basketball upbringing completed his on-ball initiation attracting heavy interest from AFL talent scouts.

                                A distinct lack of big man appeal in Thursday's annual intake of new draftees, means he could even be taken somewhere inside the first 30 picks.

                                Lobb graduated to play 12 senior games with Swans, averaging 25 hitouts an outing after nine runs in reserve grade.
                                Did someone say basketball background?
