Why don't you ask Stuart Duffy then?

| I hope Sam goes to the NRL and furthers his career, because he aint going to get no better here, been coached by donkeys and team mates that are not up to pennine league level. A move to Manly would be his best option. £1m for a 3 year deal, he should bite there hands off.

| There seems to be some momentum in these stories, but are they actually a story? Burgess wants to play in the NRL at some point. Some clubs in the NRL think he is quite good and would like him. No s*** Sherlock.
Im not sure I think he is going anywhere. I think he will see out his contract with the Bulls, then go, for a new challenge. Just like Fielden did.
Oh hang on...

Agree that there is no story yet, as you say obvious statements from some clubs about his potential - as you'd expect.
Its certain that if he keeps injury free and further develops his skills and stamina he will be at some time be ready to mix it in the physical arena of NRL.
To go there within the next 2 seasons will see him unready and getting the cr*p beat out of him on a regular basis.
Lets remember how few players have made that step successfully.
Elliss(so far), Morley, Howard(perhaps) and they were battle-hardened before they went.
If Sam sees his contract out at the Bulls to 2011 then probably the right time to chance his arm at the ripe old age of 23!

tend to agree with most of that. having said that I wouldn't be too surprised, or disapointed, if we agreed to sam going a year early at end of 2010 season inexchange for some cash and or a player.
If we allow him to leave at end of season then club is effectively signing its own death warrant imo.

Lyon could have Morrison's quota place, Williams could have Tadulala's
Not very likely though

You've lost me on this one, but it sounds intriguing.

| And another thought.....Paul Newlove?
It could well be the catalyst for something good.

By far the most sensible posts on this thread have come from mystic eddie. - copyright Ewwenorfolk 09.04.2013
Aye, and Eddie is hinting at it too. And, as we all know:

One assumes he is referring to a certain young lady who is known to have friends in high places at Odsal.
The Madjeski Stadium provides a clue....
