is that so? all the talk is that he's definitely out the door, which seems unfathomable to me after the sort of season he's been having

He still could be.  Maybe freo can't get the deal done and he is going to WCE.

ala Cerra to the dees last year but the shoe is on the other foot!

    Lucy, we are getting confused here about Lobb and Jacko.

    My original post was about Freo wanting Lobb to stay, who is contracted btw for next year, in connection to not getting Jacko.

    Whatwhatsaywhat was commenting on Lobb's good year this year and that the word is he's gone, even though he is contracted.

    I'm choosing to believe it's true but just for today. A person can dream!

    The fact that Freo are now wanting Lobb to stay, might be due to someone not coming to them.

    pretty sure freo have never not wanted lobb to stay regardless of any other options they've been looking at

    If they got the bloke they wanted, his salary would cause them to let go of players and Lobb has stated his partner wants to get back to the East Coast. Freo might not want Lobb to go, but if they get their man and hopefully not, they will need to make cap space.

    Im not saying trade, as per the second line in my statement "could look elsewhere"

    purely if he asked for a trade.

    He has played about 4 games and shows a lot of promise. 
    Why would he ask for a trade?

    Not at all. You have to earn your spot in a  good side. The Club need Bedford going forward. Osker Baker will need to look elsewhere

    Yes you did.

    If he shows promise and is not getting a game, why wouldn't he look around?

    It's not just clubs that let players go, players also leave because they want better opportunities.

    But he is getting games in a side that has September intensions. That is not to say he still needs improvement in his game

    That's the whole point, he is not getting regular games and that is why he may decide to move on.

    Still a big chance to play in this years finals. Would be a foolish thing to do. He will be a regular in ‘23

    Whose place will he take in 23 to be a regular?

    That is entirely up to Toby. He kicks excellent goals and has serious pace. He just needs a bigger tank.

    Always about Bedford. He has raw talent that needs to be trained, would be very disappointed if he didn’t become a serious MFC Player in future.

    I disagree - he has excellent pace and a big tank. You'll see him in the top 5 or so endurance runners at the club, as well as the fastest top 5. His big let down is his kicking, in spite of him kicking a few ripping goals.

    • PREVIEW: Essendon

      Not long ago, the narrative surrounding Melbourne was steeped in pessimism. There was some concern among the pundits (and even some fans) that the club would arrive at the AFL’s Gather Round still winless, vulnerable to a familiar adversary in the Essendon Football Club, and facing significant scrutiny from an ever-critical media on a national stage. Things have changed.

    • REPORT: Gold Coast

      Steven King astutely identified the issues that had plagued the Melbourne Football Club over the past two and a half seasons when he auditioned for the newly created coaching role. The side that had claimed the 2021 premiership had become stodgy, slow-paced, and hesitant to take the initiative.

      The Demons put four quarters of hard contested, fast running and high pressure football to knock off the ladder leaders and early premiership contenders the Gold Suns by 20 points at the MCG on Easter Sunday.

    • PODCAST: Gold Coast

      I’ll be away for the next few weeks, so Binman will be holding the fort for our podcasts covering the Suns, Bombers and Lions matches. As a result, there will be no live podcasts during this period, and we won’t be taking calls or voicemails. Binman will still be dipping into this thread to select a few questions to answer, while also combining the long-form Stats Files podcast with the Demonland Podcast for these shows. Your questions and comments are a huge part of what makes the podcast work, so please post anything you’d like to ask or say below and we’ll do our best to give you a shout-out on the show. Please try to keep each post focused on one specific topic or player to make podcast preparation a little easier. If you have multiple topics you’d like to raise, please put them in separate posts.
