Yes, 1 year contract with option in our favour, strict conditions on suspensions. Don’t forget we have another player we took from the Dogs who was suspended for biting.

Given that our current roster is full of either :
1) mediocre players lured to the club with a contract that far exceeds their value as a player, based on their history
2) promising juniors who make no progress because the encumbent coach doesn't have the nous or has no faith in them
3) career reserve graders
I would think that it's inevitable that we make him an (inflated) offer.
I just can't decide whether he would be a category 1 or 3.
Then we could let the likes of Ford, Timm, Host or Leluia go to a club with a coach who can get the best out of them and spank our ar$e$ two or three times a year.

What happened to RCG? 30th June passed and no news. I see he was named as a reserve for Penrith this weekend.

Hmm.... Pass on this one. I'm sick of taking other club's rejects.

If Wayne doesn't want him and can't get the best out of him, there's no point paying a premium for him to come here.
I'm sure Wayne has umpteen opportunities he is considering and Burgess does not measure up to any of them when consideration is given to price and talent. SGI on the other don't have a prop in our sights at the moment.

I could live with signing G Burgess if the price is right. I say this because I think the likes of Vaughan, Frizell, Sims and possibly Graham would be a good influence on him. He certainly can run straight and hard and on his day is a good strong defender.
