Quote: apollosghost "A word about Burgess, at the ground along with most people I suspect I was disappointed at his apparent loss of pace and the way he was taking the ball up, two losses in contact IIRC and getting pushed into touch when there was absolutely no reason for it , but watching the game back on the 11th min he's running a kick return back, flying, but just before contact he loses his footing and looks like he cracks his knee against an opponent and was struggling from that point.
Credit to him for sticking it out for the remaining 70 mins because it looked like it could have really hurt.'"
Think there's been a few times this season where he's looked 10% off.
He's still better than most in this league, but I wonder if it'll be worth giving him some rest for a couple of weeks now Manfredi is approaching full fitness.
