Another reason to go.
Also Manly (as an example) beach or Bradford public swimming baths? I'd bloody go for nothing! |

Probably, but they have a very rich owner and players to throw in too, and if you saw the Melbourne game you can see why they need props and a loose forward because what they have at the minute is dire, so money spent in that department is money well spent. |

I can see burgess and Graham going, if they went now, they'd be back by the time they were 25-27. Then again a ginge in the oz climate is not a good plan!  |

Don't listen to Cas fans when they talk transfer rumours. They talk nonsense.

I don't think being at the Bulls though these last few years of turmoil has helped Burgess' development. If anything it's drifted into regression.
At the right club (Saints/Leeds/NRL) I think you'd see him explode.

I couldn't see him going to anyone but Leeds if he stayed in this country.

There are still a number of questions about Burgess that have yet to be answered.
What is his natural position? What impact has his shoulder injury had on him? Has he been forced to change his tackling technique? Is he even fit?

Past my bed time, lol. That hillarious.
You Cas lot are used to kidding yourselves, and again we see that on show with the silly statement above.
'If' Burgess goes to the NRL, it will be at the end of his current Bulls contract and for the start of the NRL 2012 season.
As for his best position, I think it's second row, but because we are short on a prop then he's being asked to play there, and rotate whenever there is an injury in the pack. I think next season we will see him more settled into 1 position, because at the moment I think his development is being stifled by moving around to much.

I would be extremely disappointed if we let him go for anything less than 500k. As for "seeing him explode" in a "better team", we already see him explode at Bradford on several occasions and he's already expressed his desire to see out his current contract and help the Bulls get back to success.

Big Sam is going nowhere until he's finished his current Bulls contract. Even after then they only place I can see him going is Australia. I don't think he will play for another Super League team unless the Bulls sell him or he goes to Australia and returns later in his career. |
