Aren't you related to Stan or know him Bula? I'm sure you said that when he was close to signing with us a while back but he ended up going to the Sharks from memory. No matter who we've signed i'm more than comfortable with whoever it is, if Bellyache has seen something in certain players and thinks they can fit in with the us then that's more than enough endorsement for me, especially the big fellas who he always seems to be able get the very best out of. I'm sure we've all question at least one signing of his in the past but i'm just as sure he's proved nearly every of of us wrong as well  :lol:

Yeah he was all but signed then the whole salary cap scandal broke plus he had a court case pending.
He was then signed by the sharks but never really got a run.
He had a meeting with the club on Saturday and was training with the team on Monday. Now with Greg going things might be a little clearer for the club and most likely sign soon.

We can only hope if we do bring in a Pom that he works out better for us than Sibbitt and Mason did a few years back. Though that was around the time of the Muppet Murray years so there's no surprise that turned to shit as well given pretty much everything else did in that period.

Would be curious about the likelihood of some younger fringe players such as Mose Masoe (Roosters) or Simon Dwyer (Tigers). Completely unsure of contract status or willingness to move but still curious nonetheless.
It's Storm season.

I could only dream! Unforutnately both Masoe and Dwyer are locked up for the next 2 years.

Dammit. Would look at the Tigers list pretty hard. They have a good list of second rowers and front rowers so poaching a fringe player might be worth a try. Plus (thanks to 2 Tiger supporting workmates) I believe they have a boom forward playing in the unders - not sure of his name but I think it's a hyphenated double banger.

Was i just trolled? :O
The article says he feels like he can do another super league,not another NRL season
Poms are so soft and the competition second rate,Even Bourbon would have to agree
the ESL doesnt cut it against the NRL,Pad that retirement fund old chap,see you home
in a few years as Prime Minister for Labour in the warringah seat

Burgess himself wanted the competition of the NRL which to me says ESL is to lima lima lima duck soft
