Was he always this cut

lol yes. Just the arm position pose and cross helps.

 

[Jubilee]

Was he always this cut

Yes. He is a very strong guy.

 

[RedVee]

Was he always this cut

Yes, he is a big and strong guy

You will see sometimes that opposing players don't like to be tackled by him, bcs he manhandles them.

Was he always this cut

Pound for pound I don't think there would be many if any stronger than him but not sure that pound for pound he is the brightest tool in the shed which I believe has been 1 of his biggest limitations.

I thought he might ultimately evolve into a Brad Clyde type 13 but with Gasnier helping out at your club he might just make the centre position his own.

Despite all the derogatory shit that is said about him in this place I suspect many will watch his progress with interest with more hoping he fails rather than succeeding.

No, we are cut that he left & bailed out of the RedV.
He’ll prove a great buy for the Eels with his best years ahead.

So no Bateman at Souths and therefore Lodge a big chance to go there instead?

He will be trying to prove a point that he will be successful at the Eels so we can expect him to be a tough centre in defence and his attack a lot different to the way he played at centre for the Dragons.

Pound for pound he is the biggest flog in the game though.

Yep i think Lodge is now a certainty for Souths unless we can offer a longer term.

Looks like he’s lost a bit of muscle, he was much fitter when he was a dragon.

I don't feel like this. Let's be real. He's played 1 great season and 6 underwhelming ones before that in which he never lived up to his potential. Plus the Eels are playing him at centre, not wing which is the only position where's he played consistently good football.
I will be surprised if he carries this seasons form into next season especially under an unproven coach.
