I really rate young Ariu,from what I have seen he has a load of potential.

Although,I dont think half back is his gig,looks like a hooker,or mayb ball playing lock?

whoever raps polumbo has got to be kidding themselves. people need to realise that c grade is a competition where half are serious and half arent, he obviously has performed agaionst low sides like colyton, st pats, minchinbury etc. i was lucky enough to get across to windsor to watch lower mtns v windsor in a cracking game won by mtns. pulumbo was up against alan eisenhuth who is only a fringe player on the wing for 20s and he absolutely tore pulumbo to shreds, he scored a double and beat him to set the winger up to score the winning try, and in attack pulumbo was dominated by his opposite once more. now i am not one to discredit players and am all for positive feedback, and i hope u can prove me wrong but that day he was SEVERLY outclassed. when he proves himself against top centres i will be the first to pour priase on him but that day is yet to come.

You must be watching the wrong kid mate?
1st of all windsor hasnt played mincho or st pats yet? they were the games that got post poned due to wet weather if i recall?..I did not watch the Colyton game so i wont comment.
2nd,I'v watched him in the sg ball (last season) not just C grade,and against Brothers,St Clair and Lower mountains ,In all game he was a stand out..If I recall, St clair have been the dominate force in that age group since under12s? ..so thats quite alot of years..He performed when they played and then played A grade after it ...Are they a "low" team/club ?
In the mountains match,i was watching the game from the same side that young eisenhuth and palumbo were on..palumbo scored a try or 2 if i recall and made eisenhuth look like a goose with a magnificant flick pass for his winger to score.And im sure palumbo injured there centre with a great ball n all hit which forced eisenhuth to swap sides n mark polumo.. So not sure how much you know about league mate,but if u call that "SEVERLY outclassed" you have no idea mate.
Also,if the kid is doing that bad how did u noticed him in that game?

you are a joke, and i would not be surprised if you are ronnie polumbo himself!! u said how did i notice him if he isnt good, i noticed him because clowns like u had been talking him up and wanted to see what he was like! and if u want i will personally get penrith to fax me the score sheet to prove polumbo did not score once! he did do a move like u said to put the winger away, but was against a no name centre from lower mountains. eisenhuth from the ensuing kick off went to mark him as the centre was injured in the process and absolutely carved him all day. the game finished with eisenhuth on 2 tries and the winning try assist and pulumbo with one try assist against a nobody. also st pats mincho and colyton were examples, as if i was going to go and see who they played, it was to make a point.

i honestly have no idea how you can have such an absurd view of rugby league to think he won the centre battle that day. it is such a blinkered view.

P.S- centres switch sides at half time, so how can u watch the game from the side they were on? hahahahaha

Matthew Lodge was great in Harold Matthews this year playing a year up. I guess he could be an option for Captain next year.

I've never seen him play, don't know about a front rower as captain due to inter change. Who does he remind you of Daz?

Lodge makes his mark

Matthew Lodge in action for the Penrith Panthers against South Sydney in the Harold Matthews Cup. Picture: CRAIG WILSON


HE may only be 15 years old, but Marsden Park’s Matthew Lodge is in a league of his own when matched up against competitors on the footy field.
The towering front-rower, who plays rugby league for St Patrick’s Junior Rugby League Club in Glenwood, has been playing representative rugby league for the Penrith Panthers’ under-17s Harold Matthew’s side this year, where his intimidating size has proved more than a handful for competitors.
Lodge is the Rouse Hill Times’ 2010 Junior Sports Star nominee for this week.
A student at Patrician Brothers’ College, Blacktown, he said he has noticed a definite step up in the intensity of playing representative rugby league since he linked up with the side earlier this year.
“It’s a bit more of a challenge, training is a lot harder,” he said.
“I’m learning heaps of new stuff. It’s faster, you have to be a lot fitter and you get tackled harder.”
The no-nonsense prop, who says he tries to emulate NRL star Petero Civoniceva because he “just does his job and makes metres on the field”, believes his side has been near the top of the Harold Matthew’s ladder because of the mateship the side has built.
“It’s really good playing games and even going to training because everyone is really good mates in the team.”
The awards are sponsored by Rebel Sport, Nash Patel’s The Good Guys and Supa Centa Castle Hill.

He is just a hard working front rower. I guess in the mould of Luke Bailey.

He complimented the much more explosive Jakiel Fuimaono well this year in HM.

No reason why he can't be captain. Tim Grant was an excellent Junior Rep's captain.
