Could see the possibilty of the younger two going, but I would be disappointed if Luke went with our already light front row.

| To add more fuel to this story, Luke flew out to Aus this afternoon, and tweets regularly with Russell Crowe!

Luke flew out for a holiday, like his two younger brothers did earlier!

| Can't blame the lad if he does want to try his luck down there, and with Sam doing so well its only natural the others will have a few stories about them.
To be honest though, he has a long way to go before he is seriously good enough to make it down under. He has the potential though ... on day.

Well obviously you do care judging by your post.
I dont care, hence why I havent commented on the story.

No, because they have probably watched him play, rather than talk rubbish about something that was previous to this season.

| If the Burgess clan do all move down under would Delaney be compelled to move with them ? Wonder if he will be as reluctant to pass over his passport for checking as he is to pass the ball to his winger.

| Burgess should go if he gets the opportunity. I'd be highly surprised if he got to play any 1st grade but Tansey did so you can never say never.
Mr Hetherington can ask for a fee and form another partnership (or renew an existing one) to the exact valuation.

| If I was him and I had the offer, I'd go. Could be a big loss for us, but I would like to see some sort of option to re-sign him if he comes back.
To be fair he's not had a huge amount of game time this year and he's clearly not in the 1st choice 17 at the moment.

| Souths signing Luke would be as much about enticing all the brothers there and the consequent media stories that will help them as his on-field ability. I suspect he could make the grade, although he'd have to work on his mobility, which is the thing Sam possesses in spades.
I have no problem at all with English players going to the NRL. Good luck if it happens.

Luke Burgess has several deficiencies within his game that he urgently needs to remedy :
1: His ball retension as he always tries to make a play available, but inevitably the ball more often than not ends up in the oppositions hands
2: His laterall defence is none existant at present, if an attacker runs the angles at him then he's through without even a hand layed on him
Any imminent move to the NRL may be a jump too soon at present for Biffa IMO
