Super Kylo : Sat Apr 10, 2010 11:09 pm  

Just utterly outstanding. That try was just utterly sensational, his footwork and balance is the best I've ever seen from a Saints academy product and he is easily one of the most talented players I've ever seen. If you watch that try again look how quick the change of hands is after skinning the fullback. His goalkicking is also pretty ruthless.

Just a 'wow' player and IMO the only one in Super League now Burgess has gone up to bigger and better things. I just hope we get to see this kid in his prime playing in the V.

The kid is truly exceptional.

He is slowly turning into an all round player too. His defence has improved so much on last season. Quins targeted him early on and he rose above it.

Watch him right at the start. Quins work his channel, trying to tire him. I can't recall one being missed by him.

A natural you think ?... The next Murphy maybe ? ... I was quite impressed with the opposition youth . . . (miles and miles behind the Aussies) but going in the right direction .

Not only did he seem to be everywhere and skillfully, I thought that catch in mid air was incredible.

Re: Super Kylo : Sun Apr 11, 2010 8:13 am  

When him and Tomkins burst on the scene, the wigan fans would always declare Tomkins the better player. Now its totally obvious that Tomkins isnt in the class of Eastmond, you watch the wigan fans now declare "Eastmond and Tomkins are the 2 best young halfbacks around"

He was outstanding yesterday

I think Ashurst, Dixon and Wheeler have great potential, with Wheeler he is more of a creative player, which will make him a good 6, however with him being on the wing yesterday it is more of a finishing position which is like a fish out of water. So I'd say don't judge him yet, wait until he's playing more at 6.

Ashurst and Dixon are still only young and are being moved in and out of the squad on a weekly bases, so when they're playing regular first team then they might start to show their true potential.
