Sam Burgess: Hands like two left feet

[RWB]

Who cares if he drops a few balls? What he contributes more than makes up for it. The guy is a freak, a brilliant machine.

But when he isn't so brilliant he becomes a liability, like tonight.

He only looks good when he is playing in the best forward pack in the NRL.

I thought he had some strong runs, but those drop balls around the play the ball in their own half were deadly.

 

[Perth Red]

I'm sure its an area of his game they will be working on. He is 21 and still got plenty of learning to do. I don;t think prop is his best position either.

I liked the look of Westwood and Crabtree and again with better coaching and conditiing both of them would do well in the NRL imo.

 

[The 18th Man]

Agree Perth Red, prop isn't his best position. I like him in the second row where he can run a bit wider (though he doesn't shirk the tough stuff like some of the roaming backrowers in our game) at the smaller men where he is good for a lot of meters, a line break or an offload which is a strong point in his game.

I've really enjoyed watching him play. I love his high energy, enthusiastic style of play. If a top club was on the lookout for an impact back rower or a lesser club was looking out for a good starting back rower then he would be a good pickup - he wouldn't be expensive either.

Is that what Souths have? News to me. It's certainly the most expensive, I don't think it's the best unit though.

Can't be the most expensive. Burgess is only on $150K :roll:

it's up around there if they all happen to play in the same game - last year we had to buy forwards from Q'land Cup and South Coast just to field a team

wow - he's getting cheaper by the day ;-)

Raiders have the best forwards IMO. Probably cheaper too. Rabbitohs forwards are good too, but they get edged outl.
