Great rumour is this one.
The last big rumour was that French was going home as he missed his family.
IL got him to sign for us.
Who knows who he'll sign next.

Interesting to see what will happen with George at the seasons end though on a serious note. Personally i think he will retire with the club and him sharing some sort of insurance payout if there is one available. I hope he doesn't and gets fit but i think that ship has sailed. Hope you prove me wrong George.

I’d be made up just to get George Burgess off the cap. Feel sorry for the guy but can’t see that hip getting better.

Saints haven’t replaced Graham yet, although there was a bit of a tiff between Thompson and Saints when he left.

Him returning to Saints would be the most likely outcome I reckon

They’ve been heavily linked with a couple of NRL forwards. They have Joel Thompson signed and Sione Mata'utia and Agnatius Paasi are rumoured to have signed. I don’t know a great deal about any of them other than I can recall watching Mata’utia make his Aussie debut as an 18 year old. Seems to have drifted a bit since without making a great impact.

There seems nothing concrete whatsoever, just a load of people asking if it’s true with no actual source. It also doesn’t make any sense for the Bulldogs either, Burgess is shot by the looks of things, why would they take on that problem?

Just seen Moley tweet saying there was a chance but it died.

Agnatius Paasi is a decent prop and Thompson has been a very good player in the NRL, the problem is that he will be 32 next season.
