I think we can say that this season, the way eddie and steveo big him up sometimes is cringeworthy, apparently according the them two, we would have won the world cup with burgess in the side.
Last year i thought burgess was excellent.

Grahams all action abit like Fielden was in his pomp whereas Burgess does his good work in fit and bursts. You don't really notice him on the pitch for a good spell then he'll come up with a great run or a stunning hit.
Graham the better of the 2 though without doubt.

Then no doubt we wouldn't hear the end of it. Yet you make a comment about his genes and somehow it's "acceptable".
What a strange world we live in.
By the way I CAN actually say
"His command of grammar is terrible, therefore there is little point listening to his opinion", and I would have a very valid point. I am talking about you btw.......
Oh and my hair is brown before you ask..........'"
are you a ginner as well?

Have you seen how many metres Graham made in that match?

He didn't really against Bradford.
He took a big hit from Burgess, but a lot of that was the hospital pass Long gave him.

Thought he was excellent against Bradford, except for trying to smash the ball through the ground rather than placing it over the tryline
Good shot by Burgess though, great to see him back to that sort of form, whammo!

| Quote: {Hogan} "He just doesnt want another game of being in Fekas pocket.'" To be fair, there's plenty of room.
Quote: {Hogan} "Graham is a Fielden just waiting to happen, played far to much RL for a player of his age. If Saints are not careful he will burn out within the next 3 seasons.'" You may be right. If it does happen though, we can always sell him to you lot for 1/2 a mil.

I think your right mate but I don't think he's like Fielden in a playing way just that he'll burn out too
Graham is a fantastic player but the main reason he is so good IMO is his fitness and ability to make a bagful of tackles and a w@nk load of carries. For me he never makes massive charges when taking the ball up, nor does he seem to attract a lot of defenders when being tackled, so a few years down the line when his fitness isn't the same and he is a 50-60 minute prop rather than a 70-80 minute prop then he won't be the same player. That's just my opinions of him, great player now though. Probably rattled a few cages

Shocking call. Richards is averaging higher metres per carry than him and Peacock this season.
