Don't see the comparison. Dorahy came on the back of being sacked from Wigan and we had little financial strength to support him.
Burgess is a playing great, novice coach, but will have financial support no other SL would be likely to offer him.

| Quote: "Burgess is an enormous risk, the lack of experience and the lack of professionalism in his post-retirement struggles must be concerns. He doesn't seem the right man to fix the culture issues at Warrington. He is a leader however and there is no doubt he'll be able to motivate the players. It's a high risk, high reward scenario I guess. The worry I'd have as a Wire fan or Director making this appointment, would be his longevity. How long is he actually willing to stay in the UK? Is he back permanently now? Is this his exit route from his struggles in Australia? Or is this a route to a head coach role in the NRL? If that's the case, he'll be gone at the merest hint of an offer and you're back to square one again. If he brings a Grand Final for that to happen, potentially you won't care too much? But it doesn't seem like an appointment that will last five years, he'll either have left for the NRL or been sacked within two you'd imagine depending on how it goes?
You are rumoured to be bringing Sean Long in as well? A superbly knowledgeable coach with some really good ideas, but the professionalism and stability of his approach is as questionable as Burgess'. I don't think you'll be complaining about effort or entertainment with those two in charge however.'"
That’s the risk with any coach based in Australia, not just Big Sam. You know that yourself with Holbrook and Woolf going back home. The one good thing is that his wife is British and only just moved out to Aus and her wanting to move back home to be closer to her family as they’ve a kid on the way so you’d think he’ll be here for at least a few years.
