Broncos enforcer Matt Lodge has suffered a suspected season-ending ACL tear in a crushing blow to Brisbane’s premiership hopes.

The Courier-Mail can reveal Lodge collapsed at training yesterday with Brisbane’s No.1 prop sent for immediate scans, the results of which will be known this afternoon.

The Broncos face a nervous wait and are hoping the scans will show Lodge has only suffered a more minor knee injury.

But Lodge is privately resigned to his 2020 campaign being over before it starts with the Brisbane bookend believing he has ruptured his anterior cruciate ligament.

A knee reconstruction would end Lodge’s season with the prop facing a likely eight-to-nine month recovery.

The loss of Lodge for an extended period would be a devastating blow to Brisbane’s hopes of launching a premiership charge in the wake of their 58-0 finals debacle against the Eels last year.

The 117kg Lodge is Brisbane’s most important prop and is viewed as a leader by the club.

Haha no.1 prop. Would like to take their no. 2 prop off their hands. We could even send them our no.1 in what would clearly be a fair exchange

Agreed. Would enjoy hearing that it's career ending. If Lodge is the example they hold up as a leader it really highlights their lack of values as a club.

How did Todd let this guy back into the NRL? Yet he wouldn't let us sign Folau?

Yeah won't be a problem for the horsies, in fact as the season progresses they could start getting some big results from some of their young blokes.

BUT, guys like Paas are injuries waiting to happen, their margins for error just got a lot slimmer with this injury. Will other clubs start muscling up against them with more determination? Absolutely.

Fox news headline is just saying "Drug charges, Bali arrest........
Now their best player gone for the season: Broncos' cursed off-season".

What a joke. Best player? Not even close. And poor ol broncos always get away with shit like Fifita etc. Its called karma dickheads, not a fucking curse.
I will never shed a tear for any bad luck the broncos have.
