Thank god, yes he is the kind of player we need but I just couldn’t find myself cheering for this grub of a human! Would rather Welsh anyways and hope to god the rumours of Jai Arrow come true
He made the mistake of his life; he committed a crime few would ever consider. But, what price does he have to pay before he can get on with his life without feeling like he has a price to pay?
It's a tough one and I must admit, I would struggle to cheer for him in Parra colours.
I think Chief summed it up nicely in his blog below.
Just his effort against us a few weeks ago was enough for me to take the pass on him. Recent form suggests he is a bigger version of Alvaro. He is a deadset plodder!!!
I would take Welsh, RCG, Ese Ese over this guy any day. But hey, that’s my assessment. One thing is for sure Parra need to acquire one or more of these guys moving forward.
he's certainly overrated in my opinion, but TPJnr has resigned for (apparently )600k per year for 3 which is arguably less than some of the numbers being thrown around late last year including offers from rivals (apparently )
"We are only now seeing some of the halves who were highly touted years ago start to come good after refining their game in reserve grade or struggling for years such as Tannah Boyd and Jake Clifford. They still aren't great halves but are much more…"
"Was Twidle debut as good as Fa'alogo for Melbourne. Is he better prospect than Iongi who waited behind Edwards. Players who wait and develop without rushing their debut, starting roles or big money early are seeing the benefit of it over young…"
"Like Ethan Sanders, who after one game people were annointing breakout star of the year. Ever since Round 1 he had a good Round 2 and has been average since.
1 game does not make a player."
"Control the narrative Pops. We knew we were going to debut Apa. We must have known for some time he was on the cusp.
This reaction by his manager implies the narrative wasn't controlled. I guarantee a Politis would have already taken both Apa and…"

We'll the let several players go in the begining of the year who were on big coin in Kahu, McGuire, Sims. Roberts and Nikorima gone too few rounds in.
They have several 18-23 yr olds who aren't on much.

Lodge carries too much baggage for a club like Parramatta, as we are still recovering our reputation after years of off field dramas.
The broncos can take a player of his notoriety as they have ample sponsors to choose from. Parramatta dodged a bullet
Good. Someone else's problem when he inevitably screws up again and drags the club through the headlines. Not worth the risk.
No they won't they will just say lodge a nrl player who the eels offered a contract did.... xyz
Good. I prefer Welch anyway
TPJ is also staying
