His tweet was in reply to "is the player a union or league?" His reply was "league and I hope he stays in the game" now to me that someone going to Union from league? Maybe Sonny Bill or Big Sam??? Any other other special league player posed to cross to union???

After 3 months of rah rah pre-season, perhaps Benji Marshall has realised he made a horrible mistake?

Like I said earlier it's unlikely to be permitted at this stage for the outcry from Saints, Wigan, Leeds et al, who would be disadvantaged by the sudden late change.

But maybe there is no bid, but it's a good way to get in the press and say well if it had have been allowed I would have stopped Burgess going to Union etc...

Regardless of whether Burgess would have signed for Salford or not.

I think other clubs would have been informed about a marquee player rule as well as Salford. The way RImmer was talking about it on bbc Manc I think this will get the go ahead, or maybe it already has??
