NRL 2019

Some good signing news by the Warriors: Karl Lawton has signed a contract extension for another two seasons confirming he will be our starting hooker in 2020 with an injured Roache as the back up. Warriors also sign Roosters forward Josh Curran effective immediately, with the 20 year-old looking for an opportunity to play in the NRL. He takes Solomone Kata's spot in the main squad.
Now the bad signing news: It sounds like the Warriors are keen on signing Matt Lodge and while he is what the club needs, an aggressive frontrower, and there are plenty of players who have redeemed themselves (Gavet, Mau'u, Packer, Wicks etc etc etc), the Warriors and Lodge would need to answer a few questions before fans buy in.
- Have you paid back all your damages to your victims prior to signing this "massive" contract?
- If you haven't, then questions need to be aimed at the Warriors recruitment manager (who's daughter is dating Matt Lodge) and whether or not this is nepotism and the Warriors are paying for Lodge's past crimes.
- Can he actually stay in New Zealand? Over in the West Island it's ok cause he's from there and they love a larrikin, but if he hasn't paid back the damages I wouldn't be surprised if he fails some character test (his past history also suggests he's a type of psychopath).
Ultimately I see him signing with Parramatta because that's where all savages should go, plus I think the media questions here will scare him off.
-
Ah the Warriors, they do one thing right (Haere ra Solomone) and then balance it by possibly saying Haere mai to Lodge.
Yeah, I really want to support a guy on my team who terrorised a family.

@Sneakdefreak did not know that he's with the Warriors recruitment manager's daughter. That's interesting, to say the least. Good point about whether he can even work/live in NZ with his convictions.

Fuck Matt lodge. He's a genuine scumbag by all accounts.

im potentially out if they sign him. The straw that broke a strangers back.

I expect all sponsors of the Warriors to be coming out with statements and NZ politicians to be asked about their views if this signing occurs.

The media will go wild with it especially since many league pundits don't think this guy should be playing in the NRL in the first place. That's why I think Matt Lodge won't sign because he'll be too scared to answer those questions.

How much money do we have? how much more would we have if we got rid of Blair and Luke? Could we throw every dollar we have at the Turbo brothers? Plus brown paper bags?

Tigers v Bunnies is an error fest. Fuck it is bad. Neither team has a fucking clue how to score a point.

Just seeing this again, it's incredible he wasn't sent off.
I know i have said in the past league is better for the fact they don't send guys from the field for every little thing, but this absolutely should have seen a send off. It was blatant, it happened right in front of the ref, he saw it, and yet all the piss weak bastard did was put it on report. That is a giant cop out.

That sums up league refereeing. Such a simple game, largely played by simpletons and the refs conspire through astonishing incompetence to make it a mockery.

NRL actually gets it right and send George straight to the judiciary. 8-10?
And as they have done this, surely the ref gets stood down for his gutless handling of the situation?
