Retired Hawk Luke Hodge has responded to a report that he was “seriously considering” an offer to join Gold Coast in 2018.

The report was aired on SEN radio this morning.

“When I got in the car this morning, I had about 15 text messages going ‘What’s going on?’,” Hodgey said on the Better on Paper podcast with David Zita.

“My reply was ‘What the hell are you talking about?',” Hodge said.

“I think the connection there as far as (Gold Coast goes) is (Suns CEO) Mark Evans”

Hodge went onto say he spoke to Evans ahead of his 300th and ran into him following his final game in Round 23.

"I rang him for my 300th where we were having a bit of a function afterwards and I wanted to know if he wanted to come down because he's been a big apart of my footy career."

"So that's the two times I've seen him in the last 8 weeks. It was a big a shock to me as anyone.”

If the AFL want to fix the Gold Coast they should offer him whatever he wants, give him a mill a year if they have to.

Seriously hope Hodge doesn't go to the Gold Coast he went out the star that he is. Don't drive a Ferrari through the mud that the Gold Coast is.

well given the reports are he is on 500k, the hawks would have to pay a lot of his contract to offload him

Maybe we could swap Vickery for Mayne, its pretty clear neither of us are getting anything out of them and no one will take them off our hands so who knows we might have more luck with Mayne and them with Vickery. They do need support for Moore, at the very least Vickery would fill the gap left by White's retirement ;)

True, and Mayne could fill the hole left at Box Hill when we delist Willsmore.
