The Rumours Thread

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.

Im not fussed he's gone. He is talented, he is strong, but as you say it took him 5 plus years to shine. Was it Fittler that called him the Chosen/special one, many years back? In terms of centres, he is not in the Gaz/Coops level. Far from it.

Was he always this cut

Cut, determined and committed

It's whether he is cut-out for centre that should concern you.

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

Well if Wayne doesn’t tell him to come to us we are no chance

Moses will make him look way better than what Hunt did playing in the centres

Moses will be part of it but primarily it will be because he is a centre.He has great footwork to beat his opposite which is wasted on the wing and great defence as a centre.
Aerially he would be as lethal from centre as the kicking game of Moses is pin point accurate
Yes he had a good year last year but is still a far more dangerous player at centre and will prove it in 25

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

I am surprised that no one has brought up the number of kickable goals that Zac missed that cost the Dragons close games. I hope Val will be an improvement in that important area.
