Just watched it then and says he will be starting in the front row.
Why did we get rid of him for again?

He was a decent player, but extremely injury prone.
2013 - ACL in Round 21.
2014 - Didn't play a game, recovering from ACL in 2013.
2015 - Calf tear in Round 1, MCL tear in Round 8.
2016 - Double break in leg in Round 1, hasn't played since.

I watched what he's talking about, take it with a grain of salt, the guy who reported it is a nobody, I have no doubt he's coming back, but there's no chance Wayne has told anyone who's starting at Lock.
Everyone will be fighting for starting spots come next season, as they always are.

It would make sense to start Dodds at lock.
He was one of our better defenders last year and did a fair amount of clean up work. Has a decent offload in him.
It would mean we wouldn't have to weaken another position in the forwards to strengthen one.
None of our younger guys are really at the starter stage yet. I don't see Dodds as a long term option, but could do the job for next year until one of our younger guys develop more or we find someone better on the market.

If you go onto nine news they were at the Broncos awards night and they were interviewing Thaidy and while they were doing that at the end he says 'good news for the broncos Mitchell Dodds is coming back and starting in the front row'.

He would be a great option defensively but the thing we lacked this year was go forward and he would offer less than Parker did.

So glad we got doddsy back
he will strengthen the bench with his experience
his work last year on our finals run was very underrated

He stings in defence, so he's going to gain us ground by not allowing the opposition to gain as much territory.
I don't think he'll be starting in the back row. He played his first season of first grade there but he's bigger now and has pretty much played exclusively at prop except for a few games where we were critically under-manned. Unless he spends the off-season changing his body shape again and is used to ease Arrow or another rookie in.

If dodds is starting in the front row, then I think mcguire will play lock. Remember how he was playing more minutes then usual late this season I think that was to get him used to playing lock.

We need experience on the bench that's where dodds needs to be if they need a big body in the front row it should b smoking joe he spent the rest of the season in qcup in the front row mayb Bennett was getting sum experience up

If we do sign Moga, he won't be anymore than depth, in fact we'd need several injuries in the backline before he even gets a look in

Moga is a gun when he is on the field strong n with good hands just need broncs staff to get him fit like they did Boyd
