Bunnies launch audacious raid on old rival to poach Roos star as Sam Burgess replacement: https://www.foxsports.com.au/nrl/nr...s/news-story/373439ecce74bd03bb9a4930d9cdabfa

The Frizell rumour is an interesting one. I thought about it today and to be honest, I'd probably take him over Fifita. Still getting one of the best second rowers in the game and he'd cost less. Get Frizell and we may have enough to sign Mitchell too!

Frizell would be a great buy.
11. Frizell
12. Su’a
13. Murray
That’s a great looking backrow.
It is an interesting read to say that he has only been in the finals once. Chance to play finals plus linking up with Wayne might be enough to entice him? either way it will be sad to see Sam either

A) retire
B) take half the season off because he has had surgery and/or stem cell implants (or whatever he is supposedly getting done in the US)

Yes much rather have a healthy Sam Burgess. But if he's not healthy, then Friz would be the way to go.

A blurry pic and throw up anyone’s name and there magically in the shot! More theories flying about here than an episode of x-files

Earlier during 1 of st georges games the comentators were saying frizell was on the move he wasnt happy

Very good back row. Add the front row for us and it will look even better.

I certainly wouldn't be saying no to JWH either. In my opinion, he's currently on top in prop world. David Fafita will eventually get there, but Jared will hold it for a couple of years yet.

Be even better if we got JWH because he currently plays for the Rorters

He is 31, if you got him after next year he would be 32 not worth the 800k

Not sure. I reckon he's good for 3 yrs at least. Gallon played until he was 37 and he played more games than Jared. But you might be right.

It's all over for South Sydney champion Sam Burgess. It's going to be hard to replace possibly the best forward in the world. But for Sam's benefit, the pin has been pulled. No sense in ruining your whole life and body over footy. This news will be announced within two hours by the club. IM SAD. VERY SAD.

Yeah sad news.
Drums were beating this week and last week that he would retire so I half expected it. Shame, he was a great club man and fantastic player.
All the best for the future, Sammy. Hope he takes up a role within Souths like Sutto & GI.

Ideal defence coach

Gees I feel sorry for Sam. I hope Souths give him a job as defence coach to keep him in the game he loves and at the club he loves.

Give Matterson a one year deal and then throw the book at fifita for 2021

Or go for Tyson Frizell who is better and will cost less.

 

[Different kind of Rabbit]

We definitely need at least two forwards for 2020. No point waiting around for Fifita to come in 2021.

How do you come to that conclusion Tyson is a seasoned SOO and Australian test Hardman where as Matterson has done nothing your off your head
