Hey sherlock NEWS FLASH- when clubs recruit a player they don't jump on the LU forums to hear what 90% of Australia know- they have full time recruitment staff-
Taylor couldn't even cut at first grade and Burgess was KILLING at the international level- Taylor is a Myth if you ask me...great skills for a big man, great pace- but no heart. That's why he couldn't cut it at the baby broncos....IF you are on the front foot, with a quick play the ball, he will run 1000 miles an hour at some speed hump, but goes missing when the hard yards are needed to be made...
Burgess wasnt killing it at the international level, if he was then we all would have heard of him before he signed with Souths, but i guarantee none of you had and thats why his price is set so low.
You can hype a player up all you like from ESL or even toyota cup appearances but when you pay too much for them without them having proved themselves in the NRL, you could potentially end up with a Filiga lemon..
Lets not forget he was the "Next Sonny Bill" and was "KILLING" it before he signed with the Sharks too
Your opinion on Taylor is ridiculous. and one obviously not shared by the QLD selectors who judging from the success of the last 4 years obviously know what they are doing (much more so than the NSW selectors or you or i for that matter either)
