After an injury scare on Monday night in Canberra, Rabbitohs forward Sam Burgess is positive about getting back onto the field this Sunday afternoon in Cairns when the Rabbitohs take on the Newcastle Knights at Barlow Park.
The English international returned to Sydney early on Monday to have scans on his shoulder following a tackle in the Rabbitohs’ round 20 match against the Raiders.
After receiving positive news, Burgess says he is working hard with Rabbitohs medical staff to play in the Big Show @ Barlow.
“The shoulder feels okay,” said Burgess.
“The scans came back better than they expected – no surgery needed – so I’m working hard with the medical staff to try and get right. It’s improving day by day.
“We’ll just see how it goes, Madge has given me as long as possible. I’ll travel with the team and I’ll probably do some tests on Saturday so I’ll know a little more then.
