Burgess has shown nothing so far except that he is a very good player in a pretty average team. To quote Monty Python's George Bernard Shaw; "He stands out like a shaft of gold when all around is ****".

Tolman, on the other hand, stands out in the best team in the world. Big difference.

sterling agrees that "potentially" burgess could be the best english import ever

He won't be,he'll be 2nd after the Black Pearl.

phil lowe, mal reilly, ellery hanley, Kevin Ward. Plenty of great British forwards he has to get in front of but he has time and talent. Lang is a good forwards coach to learn from so hopefully he will become very special over the next few years.

morley too

forget comparing him to hanley its pointless

hes a forward

if he can surpass mozz hell be good enough
