Great. Another "will he, won't he" circle jerk.

f**k Burgess. He should stay where he is. Dirty, face raking, testicle grabbing thug.

Why would it be hilarious? Is he a fullback?

Never heard of him (literally, not in the IBM way)

He is a lock/prop and played/plays in the Raiders U20's, QLD u20's ( captain I think ), he is another souths logan player the Raiders have very high hopes for and a lot of Raider fans would be more than upset to lose him to the same club that took Milford from them.

tell us what you really think....

*if* he did wnat to come back it would be interesting how the nrl dealt with it. you'd think he'd want to go back to soufs but with their salary cap that wont be possible. Smith has the opportunity to get him under the marquee allowance, but everyone else would blow up deluxe

And rightly so, as they would if the marquee allowance was used to get SBW back to the Roosters.

IF he came back, he'll come back to the Rabbitohs. $200k under the cap and a nice top-up from Mr Smith :lol:

We'll sign him under a Mark Gasnier type arrangement. $100k this year and a trillion dollars for 2016 / 17.

Then he'll win the comp with us again and retire at the end of 2015.

Surgess back to Bunnies. Glenn Stewart released to Eels to link with Watmough, Foran, Hoppa, Gower, Lussick... Sef Paulo to Manly.

It's two premature surely, he has played what 10 games or something?

You can spell premature, but you don't know how to spell too?

:p

I would agree with you, it does seem a little premature.
But when you think about the sort of people in England that play/run Rugby and think about Sam, then maybe he realised his mistake 15 minutes after he landed in England.

The NRL or Super League would welcome him back with open arms.

Yeah but Gasnier wasn't very good in that stint and no-one thought he really would be, S.Burgess was probably the best forward in the world and still would be. He's worth a mil+.

That would be a farce if it happened, and you know it, you can laugh and hope all you want but the NRL would be stupid to do it.

In fact if this happened a lot of people including myself that I know would be done with the game.

and this is where the discretionary marquee allowance will go to hell. players will go away for a year or two then come back on fatter contracts which wont get counted under the cap. soufs could "let" inglis go to rugby for a year, then he could come back and get paid a shitload more by the nrl and not be under anyone's cap.

if hayne decides to come back this will present a problem too since he apparently has agreed to rejoin the eels if he ever returns

Signed up until the end of next year. No way in hell they will let him go before then

He's signed until the end of next year and has just made his debut (indicating how highly the coach rates him), so best of luck with everything. Seeing the way Sir Benny has turned Milford from a live wire fullback into a pot bellied 5/8th wont help them in recruitment
