Surely someone will be replacing him. If so who do we reckon it could be?

Thank Christ for that .. useless plodder

We just picked up Naden and we are starting to see some of our injured backs coming back in the next month. We lack forwards a bit so I think Lodge fits the bill and would add the aggression we lack.

Can see Lodge being signed. Maybe just for the rest of 2022 before he joins uncle Wayne

Interesting that none of the “insiders” mentioned anything about Mikaele.

So lets see, Lodge released by Warriors, Mikaele released by us.........hmmm.

Probably best for both parties, I still don’t think he’s realised his potential yet .. he’ll probably have a quick stint over there then come back to the dolphins or something

Good luck to flipper hands

Knights are the front runners for Jack Hertherington

Honestly I'm happy about it. It's good fun to speculate about signings that never happen to pass the time then be surprised by great signings out of nowhere.

spot in top 30 now
maybe Dykes or Thompson from dogs heavily subsidised perhaps

 

[Speed2burn]

I have a feeling M Lodge will replace him..

Honestly I hope not, reckon he carries too much baggage

unusual normally Pom and some of the other guys get good mail
shifty sheens doing things with no leaks now

Would take lodge for a year over thompson any day. Partly because leaving him burning a hole at the doggies is worth a lot more.

Lodge until end of the season

Hetherington to the Knights and we can take Klemmer. He's been Newcastle's best by miles this year

hearing through a police mate who is acquaintance with Lodges old man that it is lodge we are signing

Was thinking the same. I really hope Sheens has something different in store though. June 30 deadline for Top 30, so we will know soon enough.

Yes, he is strong, isn't he ?
Reckon he could carry plenty of bags.
Apart from that . . . he's got mongrel, is a tough hard player, runs fearlessly and has an offload.
What is in the past is in the past.
I don't think there are any do-gooder flower weaving, volunteering at old folks homes forwards available right now.
We may as well let bygones be bygones and improve our team with Lodge.

Lodge is a short fuse waiting to burst on the field. For a team that’s not very disciplined as it is don’t think he’d be a good addition

Agree on the 2nd part tho. Doggies can ead
