SAM Burgess has left rugby union side Bath with immediate effect and has struck a deal to return to his rugby league club, South Sydney Rabbitohs.

Thanks to those uncapped 3rd party agreements.
I'm sure Packer/Crowe connections would be endless.

Cooooome on back Sam.
See how Bennett is stirring the pot. Saying he would like him... Trying to get that price up up up

Geez a couple of souths supporter sympathizing with the Tigers.

Things are worse than I thought

But yeah, it is pretty hard to support them at the moment. That are going from bad to worse. The Balin on is a head scratcher... Pay money for a bloke that isn't as good and then even if you move Farah on you are still probably going to be paying more money in total then Farahs current contract.

No matter what the internal politics is, financially it is a dumb decision.

But great news for you blokes with Sam returning.

I think the Tigers admin were hoping Farah would move on when Taylor said he would be playing reserve grade next season. Most players would move on but not when you are owed $1.8 over next 2 seasons.
Farah has a back ended deal as he took a pay cut over previous seasons due to salary cap drama. He is also in a specialist position - no utility at hooker

gave up. end of story.


thorn is the best code hopper by a country mile. no other league forward has ever made the grade in rugby union.

sbw reneging on contract has got nothing to do with whether he can play.


farout, typical dumb ass one eyed league supporters

you proved you didn't read my post… thorn come from union and was always a union player that got a gig in league ,,
+ you're sounding like the pom press looking for the escape goat for there pathetic world cup campaign. he played got no respect and now Sams back,no harm, now sams back where he gets respect in the greatest game of all.

BTW wipe your mouth with your private school tie you have a bit of sh!t on it

Big f ing deal cobra.

Most footballers have played both codes you dumber than dumb snake.

Burgess didnt have fortitude to see it out a good rugby player which he would have been.

your argument is full of flute holes

Get any waves this morning

Mt gravatt state high school were I played league .

Poor Sam did not have a chance and this will stain him when it shouldn't have. Sad state of affairs really for all involved. No one looks good after this debacle. Souths, Sam, English Rugby or Bath. Take your pick.

This is pretty hard to disagree with as well. I think he would have been a good player in time - showed glimpses and has all the skills. Just needed to learn the game. The fact that his club side and country could not decide what position he should play was the big drama.


“The Sam Burgess affair makes me feel sorry and furious,” Dawson wrote.“Sorry for Burgess and steaming with anger at whoever thought it would be a good idea to persuade him he could be a World Cup-standard centre eight months after switching over from rugby league.“Whoever made that promise needs naming and shaming. But I am not holding my breath.“When Burgess came over to union, some former players were given flak for saying the move was not going to work.“Some were accused of being anti-rugby league but that is all nonsense.“When someone like Brian O’Driscoll comes out and says centre is one of the hardest positions to learn you have got to listen. Burgess could have made it as a back rower but that takes time and that is one thing he ran out of.“It is a crying shame that nobody listened. No-one is going to turn down the chance to play in a World Cup so I am not blaming Burgess for this — he was just ill-advised and whoever did the advising should be ashamed.”

^^^ Can't argue with that Ted.
I said from the start he wouldn't make it in Rugby.
Too much adjusting in such a brief time was never going to work. As a backrower, I would question his speed to the breakdown. It's a different game and requires endurance unlike the stop start play of Rugby League with interchange.
Bad timing with RWC in his first season.
He needed 3 years preparation and the whole saga cries scapegoat.

Wow the knives are out for Sam in the UK at the moment from his ex teammates.........

First time I have hear some humility from this bloke in a very very long time - anyone see the fight? Sounds like he was gone by round 2 but hung in there.

“Charles boxed well and moved well. He had good distance and range and I got caught early reaching for him.“I feel fine — it’s not like I’m super beat up, but he had a great game plan and he stuck to it.“I couldn’t tag him and he caught me early. Congratulations to him. I wanted to fight the best but it didn’t go my way.”

From the commentary..............

Mundine down three times in second round. The champ took a lot of punishment as Hatley unloaded with left rips and overhand rights. This could be over soon.

McQueen and walker gone from souths.
