Quote Roofaldo="Roofaldo"Burgess might have sprung to your small mind simply because you're a bigot when it comes to English RL, however, he's not one of the players mentioned in the article. He's currently considered one of the best forwards in the sport so why would Souths want rid?'"
Little pommie sam was hired by Russell Crowe for one reason.
To sell memberships for his club.
He was an unknown name down under. Rusty billed him as some unstoppable super hero from the northern hemisphere on an unsuspecting Aussie public in order to generate interest....and therefore sell more memberships. He is a clever guy.
But sadly Sammy was soon exposed as being yet ANOTHER pom who couldnt really cut the mustard in the NRL. No shame in that. I'm sure he was good for Leeds or Bradford or whoever he played for over here. But as we all know it takes a special type of palyer to succeed down under...and since Tommy Bishop there havent been any others.
Barry McKenzie just thinks they ought to send him home (and lose a few other of their more ineffective players too) so at least Greg Inglis (a bloke born to play for Souths in my opinion) can start doing what he does best.
