You know the whole saga is one big toff finger pointing storm. When Ray French is the only one talking sense. ...

Matt Dawson called Burgess arrogant for even thinking about playing for England union. ... off pal I'm a 48 year old asthmatic with a broken big toe and I wouldn't look out of place on a pro union field.

I actually laugh at some of the they get up to in the odd seconds I give the sport my attention.

Union is a horrible sport run by and commented by bent horrible spiteful condescending toffee nosed lovers.

I'm quite a laid back person but my passion for rugby league is only matched by my hatred for union.

Its a sport ....I'd rather watch the taliban stone kittens to death

Anyway ......Coffee break over ....

Oh Burgess... he'll stay at Bath for another year I guess. Like joey johns says "I don't know why they go. ..they always want to come back".

The same Mike Ford who played in that appalling 80-0 loss to St Helens that forced a decent coach to resign.

Cullen played in that game too and then became a coach.

I was there for that game and feel ill at the thought of it.
Can anyone remember the date of that game. I though it was 1994 but my memory is rubbish

January 1996
