Lodge had a bad ACL injury a while ago. He's only 29, which surprised me, but he hasn't been a force for some time - a bit Keith Galloway style for me, overtaken by younger, more dynamic props.
The video of him in the incident in NY was horrific. He may be a reformed character but signing him wouldn't sit well to me. I'd also question whether he'd get a visa, although the charges were downgraded on the basis he pay compensation to the victims (not sure he really did).
