Is Tom Burgess actually any good or are people just going off his surname?

He's by far the biggest of the lot at 6 foot 5 and 18 stone, and he's only 19. He makes a lot of yards and clearly has a lot of potential.

If we could sign him I would be delighted, but as I said before I can't see it.

I've not seen enough of him to say.

In my opinion yes, with the potential to be excellent.

Any prop that is making good yards and breaking the line at 19 years of age in a poor team has bags of potential IMO. He has size and athleticism.

I'd be absolutely delighted if we signed him.

I'd be delighted to see us sign anyone. Me thinks the club are holding back on spending the cap money until they see how Jammer settles in the sun. He might be back sharpish if he gets burned in the NRL.

I'veheard we are trying to prize a top RU half back from Preston Grasshoppers.

Mate the way you worded that original message had me cacking my pants thinking you'd heard he was a goner and not that we'd come up with some ideas of how to keep him.

I never got round to asking for the PM so wondered what it was. I'd never have guessed it'd be the best news the games had in a while.

I can't believe you come up with something as massive about another club, yet can't tell me what the away kit or the name of the ground looks like. I take it your sources must be Wiganers playing for Saints? [goes to read where the players were born].
