Western Bulldogs have added some much-needed versatility to their squad with the signing of former Fremantle forward Rory Lobb. Lobb, who was drafted by the GWS Giants with pick 29 in the 2013 National Draft, played 20 of a possible 23 games in his debut season with the Bulldogs in 2022.

The 29-year-old is a tall and athletic player who can play in both the forward line and the ruck. He has a strong aerial presence and is a good kick for goal. Lobb's versatility will be a valuable asset to the Bulldogs, who have been looking for a player who can fill multiple roles.

Lobb is excited to be joining the Bulldogs and is looking forward to playing under coach Luke Beveridge. "I'm really excited to be joining the Bulldogs and I can't wait to get started," Lobb said.

"I think I can bring a lot to the team and I'm looking forward to working with Luke Beveridge and the other coaches.

"I'm confident that I can help the Bulldogs achieve their goals this season."
