You can't be serious????

Sam is one of the best and elite forwards in the game as Sterlo said the other night.

800k is the right price. You can't pay him less than that.

Heck even Taumalolo is on a million.

It's the twins that are getting too much at 550-600k each.

Sam is triple the player they are.

I'm sick of your criticisms re Sam. Imo they are unwarranted!!!!!!!!!!

Without Sam we would be wooden spooners!!!!!!!!!!!!

Are you serious? Criticisms re Sam?

You know how the Salary cap works right?

We can't continue to pay overs for players and wanting to sign more higher class talent. Sam is good but his best form was in the back end of season 2014. His price tag doesn't match want he is currently worth. Gi and Reynolds are in the same boat.

Question to all - if Souths were to make the eight would your views change?

I suspect that the team is lacking many things and consistency is the major issue. I believe that this has been a problem for our team for many years now, 2014 was the only year where we played reasonably consistent win or lose.

I am being serious.

My oath he's worth 800k.

Agreed if not for sam we would be in the spoon position and still may be considering other high paid sooks like Adam Reynolds are not doing the job kicking out on the full no organisation of the team if anyone is overpaid its him we need to shift him on and get gronk
Soonas he hears others are on more than him he goes into sook mode he is a joke i say punt him

WITH Sam The Crisps are almost last now!!! Just face facts: the Burgess Brothers [and that includes Sam] and Inglis have largely strangled the Salary Cap yet their production has collapsed. Sam earns much more than $800k from what I have read its almost $1m POUNDS per season. Sam has played strongly true but he is NOT a match winner. Yet this is what he is paid to do. Until this imbalance is confronted the team will likely be second last or last especially if Maguire remains Head Coach. They cannot afford to import any quality players.

Don't start on the Sam Burgess thing again!!!!!!!!!!!!!

We had to bring Sammy back. Blind Freddy can see that.

Stewart and Grant weren't losses for Sam.

Dylan got moved on my John Lee.

We made the mistake in keeping Turner over McQueen.

Without Sam this season we'd be wooden spooners!!!!!!
The Crisps are 1-2 games away from being LAST NOW!!! Their trajectory is second last or last once Newcastle strengthens its roster The Crisps will be a favourite to finish last especially if Maguire The Burgess Clan Reynolds and Inglis all stay together.

I watch the games and yes he has been one of our best but he isn't worth 800k.

Sam is not a particularly skilful forward so I agree that $800k seems exorbitant!

If Sam is worth $800k Fifita is worth over a million a season.

Sam is getting a big amount of the money because of what he did in the 2014 grand final. But he isn't really worth that type of money. We got to stop paying overs for players, Sam is a good example but there are many more in our side Inglis, the Twins and Reynolds are taking up a lot of the salary cap which some fans don't understand that hurts us in signing players and that is why we have to sign the players we have these past 2 to 3 years.

If you guys want to see why you are struggling I think you need to look at how the players who have left you have fared.

Walker, Brown McInnes probably the best examples.

All three are playing the best footy of their careers after leaving your club.

This means that players are not reaching their potential at your club, which usually comes down to coaching and man management.

It also means that the players who you are so fond of slagging off may have a bunch of unlocked potential.

Players tend to push hard to impress at new clubs & display good form,especially early in the piece;hence players like the 3 mentioned above playing their "best footy."

It's true what you say though,in general, & I totally agree with you.

I believe Madge has been too long at Sths & seems bereft of new ideas.

If a new broom goes through Sths it should include the coach,IMO!!
