@FOXNRLLive To be clear... Matt Lodge has NOT been registered by the NRL.

But if he's allowed to play for Redcliffe, it's only a matter of time before the Bronco brown paper bag is passed onto Greenburg.

Well some times you have to believe what is written. The courts found that Meehan assaulted and robbed a taxi driver. Lodge also went to court and his actions were that he assaulted a guy in the street because he would not respond to his drunken abuse. He then followed the guy and his wife up to there apartment and forced his way in. He threatened to kill the woman and grabbed the guy in a head lock and repeatedly punch him. These are the proven facts from the court. Do you think the courts got it right?

Post links to the court results and I might believe it. I don't believe 3rd hand media accounts. Brett Stewart? One bitten twice shy.

 

[Bearfax]

Something doesn't add up mate.

He was released from the final year of his contract. With no mention as to why.

His form wasnt atrocious. So you can only guess from there.

Attitude? Behaviour? Who knows.

Conjecture Damien. You may have something but it could also be that Carney has been getting some feelers from NRL clubs and asked for the release

You've just made that up!!!
I'm sure you are not trying to be malicious but the courts most certainly did not find that Meehan robbed anyone.
As for Lodge, it seems he pleaded guilty to a misdemeanour charge carrying a maximum penalty of 1 years jail. A long way short of the aggravated robbery Meehan was originally facing which carries a max penalty of 20 years.
So you have allegations, you have the court findings, and you have reports and published conjecture from many sources (including now you!)
My original point was simply that it is easy to get fact mixed up with fiction, as you yourself have inadvertently proved.

Do we know if Meehan is fine to play NRL next year.

 

[wombatgc]

Two pages and not one link to Carney signed up with Manly.....c'mon ppl!......it could be the week after nexts huge news!

 

[madmax]

If you're referring to Lodge then only what has been in the media about how he terrorized the couple in the apartment!! Meehan was a 'bouncer' & yes he shouldn't have done what he is / was accused of, however to threaten to kill someone & proceed to terrorize...........I rest my case.

 

[SeaEagleRock8]

Your case: what Lodge did was worse than what Meehan did.
Meehan was let off without conviction on one count of assault, the robbery charges were withdrawn. However in the wake of that result he apparently made admissions about working as a standover man for criminals. He has never been charged over that but presumably that job entailed similar levels of intimidation as that dished out by the moronic and intoxicated Lodge in Manhattan.
Which one would you prefer to be terrorised by? Gee that's a tough one.
Willis has (allegedly) turned his life around, converted to Islam, and regrets his past actions, which occurred while he was very young. Fingers crossed he goes well in life and for Manly.
By the way, as of 14 October Roar reported he is not yet registered for NRL .

edit - by the way the picture shows our new recruit Omar Slaimankhel (L), some random dude, and Willis (R).

Here comes the Lurker's next scoop:

"Some random dude" set to sign with Manly

Waits for Turbo YART featuring some random dude...

In sure the truth will bubble to the surface....

Dear Scott Penn,

Don't even think about it.

Cordner's taking the piss.

 

[tookey]

He would fit in well with the roosters new recruits. Carter, Tetavano and Knight. I am sure that there are plenty of roosters supporters who are into bubblers

 

[Shoe1]

He's just a kid who loves his footy- Cordner

A 31 year old kid

 

[Eagles2nv]

He wants a halves spot and unless he wants to play ressies, there is no room for him.

 

[Clay]

Could it work as a hooker? It would definitely take care of goal kicking
