chris sandow is the best player in the super league atm

Helps that there are no pokie machines in England for him to be up all night pouring fifties into

 

[Twatface Magee]

Even Rangi Chase won a Man of Steel.

 

[DiegoNT]

Didn't adam cuthbertson win it? Or go close to winning it?

 

[Evil Homer]

Duds like Pat Richards who become "the man of steel"?

Matt Orford won Dally M and was garbage over here. It is what it is.

 

[Uncle Kraka]

By far the worst of the burgess seed

 

[WireMan]

Left to young.

He needs more of the coaching in the UK to prepare himself for the fun sucking methods in aus.
Wigan will have to retrain him on how to pass, think, and play what is in front of you.

Warrington managed to turn sandow round in half a season (something the rabbits and eels both failed to do, I mean seriously how bad is the nrl at creating players who are a bit different).

So there is still hope for burgess.
He has time on his side.

 

[Twatface Magee]

A lot of these Poms to really be lacking in perseverance and resilience.
They aren't mentally tough enough to handle the pressures of NRL.

(I'm talking about the backs, the forwards give it a good crack)

 

[Perth Red]

When he realised the main job of a winger in NRL is to run the ball out like a prop he probably decided to head back to a league with open attacking play.

 

[Albert Rosenfeld]

Joe Burgess has two main assets: speed, and the ability to defend, especially chasing down line breaking opponents racing 80 metres. His handling is a function of his self confidence.

He is now only 21, so after three more years at Wigan he will be still only 25 if he decides to give the NRL another crack.

How did joe go in reserve grade? Any stats?

Rumour has it that Joe Burgess may see out the rest of this year at Souths...

Roosters don't want him anymore and Souths desperately need some pace out wide.

The Daily Telegraph are reporting that too - http://www.dailytelegraph.com.au/sp...n/news-story/360e2f9001397249801ce3f14a791b93

 

[DiegoNT]

Fantastic! Another Burgess at Souths... yay

 

[Vic Mackey]

Fantastic! Another Burgess at Souths... yay

i think the real question is....do souths now have 12 duds?

Nope, great signing apperently. He is caucasian and a burgess.

 

[Miller was a legend]

Nope, great signing apperently. He is caucasian and a burgess.

:lol: I wish all Souths fans were like you and Pommy

 

[Different kind of Rabbit]

Nope, great signing apperently. He is caucasian and a burgess.

After watching the game on Friday night I'm convinced signing Baby John Burgess and having him on the wing would be preferable to having Neilsen out there again.

Is Joe Burgess faster than a common garden snail? If so, welcome to the team.

 

[roughyedspud]

Aye hes quick...

So, it's obviously just the Souths fans that hate the Roosters Football Club. Because when South Sydney Football Club signs a Roosters player, that's sweet. All the rivalry, hatred and forever in our shadow book of feuds is suddenly forgotten. How can something so hated be so happily accepted when you sign one their players? It confuses me.
