The over Thirties

Re: The over Thirties

I have never been able to find confirmation of Lobb's contract length which is why there is no link in the thread that shall not be named. Just went with 3 years (2025) as that seemed to be the general consensus, but it could well be 4. Not sure why it has been kept secret.

Not sure if correct, but Footywire lists him as end of 2026, which makes Aza correct, however, I thought he had a 3 year deal.

I don't think Footywire can be relied on as a source any more than big footy. Most trades reported say that player x has signed a 2/3/4 year deal, but for some reason it was never mentioned for Lobb.

If anybody actually finds an article please let me know.

Yes, you and I have had this discussion over Lobb before.

Hopefully 2025 is correct and I am wrong on this occasion.

Re: The over Thirties

Are the two linked? Lobb feels like he wants to play forward and if English goes, we're probably cramming him into the first ruck spot for a year or two - not sure he's keen on that.

Wouldn't surprise me if the Dees or Saints have a crack at him, and they're pretty tempting prospects at the moment.

Indirectly they are.

English stays as first ruck, Darcy becomes preferred second ruck / 3rd tall forward which leaves Lobb in the VFL.

But yes demons and saints make the most sense.

But it isn't definitive either.

Arriving at the Bulldogs last off-season after a career-best 2022 at Fremantle in exchange for Pick 30 and a future second-round pick on a reported three-year, $1.5 million deal, Lobb has struggled to have an impact at his third AFL club.

Pretty sure it is a better source than Bigfooty - not saying they are 100% correct .

It’s not definitive but it also does report what I’m choosing to believe is correct.

That’s bugger all 500k a year.
I’m not so bullish against him I think he might not kick the goals but he certainly does the stuff that helps our other forwards kick them , he has a tank and is a good second ruck.
As Bevo says it’s his experience and I see it .
Problem is now Darcy is coming on and maybe overtaking him.
He is also good for us in VFL teaching Lauchie Smith. He is definitely a good back up too.

Re: The over Thirties

Love Treloar , his midfield damage is under rated, we have had a massive return from him since he came, we got on top of his injuries pretty much and he has delivered.
A very loyal player who cares for his teammates, the kind of guy who you know will give his all.
I find it hard to believe he has been targeted at times by fans.

He seems to spend a bit of extra time with Sanders so like you I do rate him as a leader and a team mate.
