Lodge, you Monster

[Under the Sticks]

He's certainly giving new meaning to the term 'journeyman'.

Slim Dusty.......is the only bloke who has played in more clubs

We offered Lodge 150k a season. Definitely a big come down from what he used to get. He rolled the dice on getting a better deal, now he's on about $1,000 a week T&T at Saints, and driving back and forth to Kogarah. Should of took what we were offering.

Kogarah? Try The Gong!

Not the first bad choice in this guy's life. This is karma playing out (and I do believe in second chances in life but not for what he did).

Good guys don't always lose......compare the pair.........Jake on 950K at a Top 4 club, Lodge on T&T $1K a week at a middle to bottom club

You don't get let go by 5 clubs if you have the right mojo and a good manager.

Try 6 ... Storm, Tigers, Broncs, Wahs, Chooks, Sea Eagles
(and I doubt any of them were his manager's fault)

He gambled and lost....unlucky for him.

Flanno will get some level of value out of him.

And nothing surer he will have some sort of okay game say round 11 this year and people in here will blow up that we 'let him go'

Lodge we know can still give a good 25- 30 minutes a game. So to your point there will definitely be moments where some silvertails blow up for sure.

For me the final straw was when he got obliterated by the roosters in our last game of 2024. Sure, he wasn't alone in the Manly pack that evening, but it was time to move on from him.

The Cookie Monster has finally found a place to bake his Cookies in the Dragons Kitchen

We only blow up when we lose feathered friend
Losing in Not The Manly Way
and Manly people are not good losers

LOL - Even the goons have knocked him back.

Might end up playing for Manly Ressies yet.

It's a shame for both him and us because he would have been worth having in the squad on a minimum contract. He is much better prop depth than most of our other options.

Yep. I’ve posted my thoughts on this game on a few occasions over the last few months. It was embarrassing. He talked it up during the week and put a target on his head and when he failed miserably, the opposition and their supporters absolutely revelled in it. That night I went home from the game hoping to God that he’d be cut loose by the club.
