Matt Lodge looking for a club

Three weeks ago I thought Matthew Lodge would be at the Warriors:

Now Brisbane "It comes amid reports that the Broncos are prepared to pay as much as $1.6 million to see the back of the 25-year old."

Apparently he does have a serious Knee Injury. But it's more then this. The Broncos are doing a cleanout. They want to offload all their players who played under Bennett or Siebold because they view these players as toxic or exposed to toxicity.

Depending on how serious that Knee injury is, I would be willing to offer a PERFORMANCE BASED contract to Lodge and bring him back.

Strong no for me
- doesn’t fit our new culture
- struggles under the 6 again rules
- we are well stocked for middle forwards

 

[Cultured_Bogan]

No thanks. Too much money, injury risk and complete knob.

 

[mikey]

He would need to be paying us for the negative press he created.Even then I wouldn't want him back.

 

[mike]

^^^^^^^ This

 

[PJ_]

Nope.
Injuries aside, I reckon Madge would turn him into a weapon though.
Absolute flog, should never have been allowed back in.

 

[Tigers_Tigers]

i wouldnt mind him, would slot on the bench nicely

 

[jadtiger]

A thousand rimes NO.Turdberg was the one responsible for letting him back into the game just to keep the "walking dead" happy.
Let Lodge rot where he is

 

[JC99]

His knee injuries have limited his mobility in attack and defence and he’s struggled. Plus he’s a terrible human being. No thanks even with broncos paying

 

[tigerbalm]

Tonight's the night I'm gunna have to say a hard no on this.

 

[the_third]

Absolutely no.

Personality
History
Busted knees
No lateral movement
Yesterday’s style of player

 

[Curaeus]

Absolutely not the kind of guy we want anywhere near the place.

 

[tigerap]

There is a reason why no other club wants him even at half his salary... Lodge has a great manager, set him up lovely for the next 4 years... gives him time to plan for life after footy as no other NRL club is interested...plus let him be an$800k pa burden on the broncs cap for the next 4 years

No thanks. Too much money, injury risk and complete knob.

Sums it up nicely.

 

[GNR4LIFE]

We have enough props.

 

[bathursttiger1]

As far as I’m concerned he can keep looking elsewhere, knobs like Lodge are surplus to requirements at Wests Tigers.

 

[hank37w]

Absolutely no.

Busted knees
No lateral movement

.................and the clown gave us a serve because we gave him the flick, as if it wasn't deserved after what he did.

 

[Russell]

The guy is an out and out dirtbag, and that's giving him a rap.

Absolutely should never have been allowed into the great game of RL again. Thanks Turdberg.

Don't like him, don't need him, don't want him even if he paid us.

A disgusting human being, that Karma has grabbed by the scruff of the neck.

 

[Geo]

Wests Tigers not one bit interested in Lodge

 

[tig_prmz]

He's apparently paid for his crimes but not enough in my eyes.

I find him too low of a human who hasn't faced justice yet (even with Packer I was half/half).

I'd find it very difficult to support him.
