Wardle, Westerman or Watts are nowhere close to wow factor.

Wardle & Westerman would be good signings, Watts would be a bit of a disappointment - far too many brain farts in his game.

I seam to remember us being in for Gareth Hock few years ago.
That would be a big wow for all the wrong reasons.

I would take all 3 of them above burgess. He's alright but he seems to either go for one out rugby or have a brain explosion and do the wrong pass. He's the best of the twins if it's George we have signed we have better already.

Aren't opinions funny because I would take Burgess above all 3 of them. Burgess has been a stand out at International level, none of the above 3 have. Burgess got unsettled when there was talk about a move to the NFL. Get him darnt' lane with DP and he will soon be hitting top form again.

South Sydney fans saying it's false. Supposedly from a reliable source. Sure we will find out in a week or 2. Hope it's true but if not I'm sure it will be a big name.

If it is him thats great, still think Wardle would be a good signing. Can replace Webster when he hangs his boots up

That's the thing with opinions,the only ones that matter really to us are the ones of Daryl and the coaching staff. If he thinks he's the answer then obviously we will all cheer him to the rafters.

I think he's the only Burgess brother now without children so maybe that's why he's been linked.
