Reported in the Yorkshire Evening Post - 24th December 2010


To sum up - Burgess is out of contract at the end of 2011, he's keeping his options open, he's concentrating on having a good season first.

Pretty standard stuff - nothing to see here (at the moment.)

Ryan Bailey (11/11/83) - The Most Feared Man In Super League The Most Feared Man In Super League (TMFMISL) * Coined by thebloodbath * Inspired by Bailey *:39092.jpg



I think once Luke can be impressive and develop, week-in - week-out in Super League for Leeds, a move to the NRL would sound more logical.

He needs a big year and hope he can produce.

I know props mature later, but I would question the lack of improvement over the last 3 or 4 seasons, he has just been at a moderate level.

2011 could be a defining year in Luke's career.

I like Burgess (Luke) but he does seen to have plateaued regarding his skill set/ work rate. Sam is in a different class to Luke at the moment and he’d really need to up his game this year if he’s seriously looking at an NRL first team spot.

Don't think he's good enough for the NRL personally.

36 NRL appearances in 8 years (2003-2010) suggest he's not a regular.

More like a shopping bag from Aldi or Netto, I'd say.

Oh dear Keith, you get worse.

Quote: Keith Swiftcorn "Prop Ryan Tandy joined the Canterbury-Bankstown Bulldogs midway through the 2010 NRL season, after departing Melbourne in the wake of the Storm Salary Cap scandal. After 10 matches for the Storm in 2010, as well as their World Club Challenge win over Leeds, Tandy made his debut for the Bulldogs in their round 15 clash against the Gold Coast Titans at Suncorp Stadium, Brisbane, going on to feature in every one of the Bulldogs remaining 12 games for the season.'"


He was an NRL regular certainly last season, no matter what you want to dredge up.

Strange timescale - he'd have struggled to play in the NRL whilst at Hull KR, Doncaster, Widnes, Whitehaven and Barrow.

Which emphasises the point - he's not very good, but has managed to get a gig at two of the big NRL clubs in the last couple of years, which suggests Luke Burgess could too.

*Insert witty banter type comment*:26414.jpg



I think in a salary capped sport such as ours any player has a chance of a move to the NRL. But then it will all come down to how much you want to play in the NRL. If Burgess was happy to go to the NRL on a very cheap contract then I would suspect he'd get snapped up purely because he would fit well into a roster. Maybe not always in the first team but more a back-up but given his chance he could then stake a claim

Neither is Worrincy Matt, but he's somehow got himself a club!
