Even if he is going to Australia at the end of the season, it's mad for Leeds to let him go short-term to strengthen another top-8 club. Unless they do it as leverage for a future deal for Chase. If he goes to Cas, I'd imagine that's why it would be.

Dream on

I'm afraid he has already signed for wire, wigan, hull fc and 5 nrl clubs so your out of luck.

Hetherington will try to off load their rubbish to us in exchange for Rangi...I hope the board tells him where to go

Not needed or wanted at wigan..... Hock is back

Think they were on about Rangi lol at that point

Don't shoot the messenger but someone on the Hull FC Rumours thread states they've had a text cinfirming Chase to Leeds next year in exchange for Burrow and JJB.

Probably rubbish I know, but just passing on a comment I read over there this morning

Well many fans went on to rave about Mitchel Sergent, even after he was done for drink driving on the same streets that our kids walk........so I guess we can let Burgess off for his moment of anxiety and a bit of tweeting!

JJB -would certainly strengthen our pack (add another couple of players of this calibre and it would soften the blow).

Burrow - I'd be mortified.

Not interested in Burrow or JJB. Leeds can keep them both.

Agreed, especially on JJB - never liked or rated him tbh.

FFS, stop the Chase rumours. People will believe anything.

Would be good signing. I am disappointed to see him go. But I think we would be mad to strengthen your team when there is a very good chance we will be fighting it out for 6th place. Touch wood!

It says in the guardian that Burgess would be available for the CC, QF. Is that true? If so, get him signed up! www.guardian.co.uk/sport/2011/ju ... -liverpool

Just been confirmed on the Cas Rumours thread that there's been a text that Speedy will be in the pub tonight, thats straight from the man himself

After reading in the Sun newspaper this morning about the 'Prop shortage could be over in the next 24 hours', I thought yes we have got Burgess on loan, but no its a few Wigan youngsters that are on TM's radar, for crying out loud get Burgess down the lane.

Do you actually think he would give 100% and risk injury if he is going to australia for next season. 100% players is what Cas want not someone who wants to stay in the shopfront without having to give his all.

Dave 'nosy' Parker's radar. Not TM's.

meanwhile via twitter

Luke burgess and cross now been released from their contract with rhinos. Still a possibility of him coming to cas, looks like he already has a contract down under for next year. www.skysports.com/story/0,19528, ... 06,00.html

think he has said no to cas

Looks like he's boarding a plane to Sydney even as we speak, judging by the Twitter conversations between the Burgess boys.
