Funny they didn't put 30 points on a poor 12 man Widnes then isn't it.

The bloke is a complete and utter clown. He had a few weeks where he looked like he had toned it down and his friendship/respect with Cunningham seemed to curb his verbal diarrhoea. But as Pete says, a few wins and now he's back to his usual self.

Oh well, it just makes the thought of beating them and winning trophies later in the year even sweeter.

I've always been a fan of Chris Brudge as a centre and he has just completely schooled Dan Sarginson.

I thought Turner was shocking until I seen Sarginson tonight. Worst defensive display ive seen by a centre.

At least Sarginson turned up. Warrington put out two stuffed shirts at centre last night.

Yet somehow in the analysis it all seemed to be Joe Burgess's fault.

I think Burgess could be making a big, BIG mistake joining the NRL at such a young and inexperienced age. Bad enough that he seems to be making a very large number of defensive errors. Worse still that he seems to specialise in the kind of spectacularly cataclysmic blunders Francis Meli's career was dogged by.

If he makes half the number of mistakes in the NRL they'll bust him down to the lower leagues where a reputation for "howlers" is the devil's job to shake free.

I don't mind cockiness in youth. But cockiness without first doing the job you're being PAID to do is a recipe for disaster. Right now Burgess looks like a player who has already accepted his own greatness. Everything he touches seems to turn to gold and the errors he makes have largely been without consequence.

Unfortunately, the harsh brutalities of the real world have the annoying habit of kicking you in the nuts just when you think you've got this life game licked. At some point Burgess is going to hit the wall. In SL the crash might be little more than a mild bump. In the NRL it'll be whilst travelling at a hundred miles an hour. How he deals with the inevitable carnage will, I think, set the tone for the rest of his career.

He reminds me of a less talented version of Shaun Ainscough, both appear to be superstars in their own lunchtime, both have major flaws in their game. At 25, Ainscoughs career is a distant memory, and I can't see Burgess getting a game in the NRL before he returns to play for Leigh/Bradford/Whitehaven and also disappears into oblivion. The goons need to work on keeping their players expectations rooted in reality, because they appear to produce average players with vastly over inflated egos.
