I watched the game and didn't think he was brilliant tbh
He can and will play a LOT better.

I like him in the back row, but his best position is prop.

It doesn't help playing with Sandow and Sutton at half back and probably the scariest threequarter line in the NRL - for their own fans.

im sure if burgess had signed with your beloved sharks, youd have a differant opinion on his form and potential...being bitter is a bad thing my friend......

I would have been genuinely racked off if he had joined my club.

I was terrified when it looked like Shaun Long was going to become a Shark a couple of years ago. You wouldnt believe how many emails I bombarded the Sharkies with saying 'NOOOOOOOO'


We are bad enough with out any Pommies on 'work experience' joining us!!

Let them join clubs like Wests and Souths!!

i'll guarantee that both the tigers and bunnies will finish above your sharks this season....
