Matthew Lodge

[Penrose Warrior]

Genuine question.
Has Lodge ever actually completed a contract?

No. Fired from Tigers, released early from Broncos and us.

His wiki page now says he plays for the Dragons. And the Telegraph says he's bought a house on the northern beaches. Whoever gets him, I wish them all the best - because he's vermin. He'd go well in a premiership side, but consistently exhibits he has no moral fibre and doesn't want to play for anyone when the going gets tough.

I remember when O'Sullivan arrived that people on here seemed very aware of what a sketchy f**ker he was, in particular with the connection to Hayson and being banned from being involved with the NRL.

My bad, I somehow missed that.

Lodge spotted playing club rugby in Brisbane last night. Shame he didn’t do an ACL

 

[Penrose Warrior]

Can we use the C word on here?

merkin. He really is one.

 

[JJ]

But that was well known when we signed him…. Reap what you sew and all

 

[RHYTHM AND STEALTH]

They fully paid out his contract

 

[Meth]

They fully paid out his contract

What?

 

[Scott]

Just seen on NRL 360 that we paid him out $700K next year! I'm speechless!!

Lodge has won Lotto. What is happening?

 

[Penrose_11]

He’s gotta have nudes of Goergie and Nath. Management have rocks in their heads otherwise

 

[Scott]

Something is going on. I smell a rat. Wouldn't be surprised if Peter O'Sullivan is involved in this. It stinks.

 

[Mr Angry]

Something fishy goes on here

 

[Mr Angry]

Then again I have been in a situation where we wanted a partner gone, so had to pay him out, just to go.

And it was worth it, I wonder who he pissed off.

 

[Beavers Headgear]

There has to be something behind it, he must have something held over the club over some sort of dodgy deal

Yeah, this has blackmail written all over it.

 

[Tongue]

Was his contract next year a player option? Given he already stated he wasn’t coming to NZ, why would they pay out his option he wasn’t taking?

 

[JJ]

Insane if true, they should have to explain

 

[Mr Angry]

My guess the guy who writes cheques had enough.

 

[WellsNZ]

This really is the lowest I have ever felt as a Warriors fan. The club is an absolute f**king disaster on the field, in the coaches box, and behind the scenes.

If this whole we are paying him for next year shit is true then the NRL needs to investigate how the f**k that has happened because it's clearly dodgy as f**k and if it means they find dirt on us then tough shit

 

[SpaceMonkey]

What the actual f**k?!

 

[JJ]

My guess the guy who writes cheques had enough.

They paid out next year too, and it counts in our cap…. It’s incomprehensible, incompetent, and incredibly suspicious
