We tried all we could to keep him.

And we haven't sold him, his contract is expiring.

Tried WHAT?? He was our academy player..our talent..Wigan Lad...who sold him out.....?

Have you been drinking? This is a shambles.

Jog on yellow head..back to your own board and stop pretending you care about WRLFC...then post hate on the VT...

What the hell are you on about? We offered him the same or more £ than he's going to earn in Aus and he turned it down.

Good luck tomorrow..not sure why you are on here..

Well the 60,000 a year we offered him will turn into 260,000 a year when we try to get him back into the club.....massive mess up by a pro club..

He will be back. I really don't see himsking any great shapes in the NRL.

Very good SL winger however without doubt.

You're fantasizing if you think the Aussie experience isn't something all these lads now don't want to have. Budge disappointed everyone by going so early, but he was set on it. Ranting about this is like ranting about the whole situation. Yeah, it's crap for the British game, but it's happening. You need to deal with it.

Are Wigan entitled to and compensation losing Burgess?
