He should also take up professional boxing.

Although I can't see him fighting for a British title after only 4 contests.


Don't ever look at his Boxing Career as anything other than "showreel". He beat Botha with a bit of skulduggery by his manager and the organisers. The reality of professional Boxing was offered to SBW a few weeks later when Joseph Parker, a professional Boxer with great potential offered him a bout.....please feel free to view Joseph Parker v botha on the popular tube sight.....you'll understand why SBW decided to steer clear of a proper fight!

Kyle Eastmond, Chris Ashton, Owen Farrell, George Ford, Luther Burrell and Sam Burgess all have a more than decent chance of being in England's World Cup Squad.

With Mike Ford, Shaun Edwards and Andy Farrell being three of the better coaches in the Aviva Premiership and/or International game, even Stuart Lancaster being brought up watching League.

It's fair to say that Rugby League is very much leading the way in Rugby Union

Indeed it is.

New Zealand have always had the luxury of kids growing up playing "both" codes and all summer there are literally thousands of "touch" teams running out every week........there really is an embarrassment of riches over here and if the NRL ever get around to Wellington having a team, then the Kiwis will dominate RL Internationally for many years to come.

Plenty of RU played in wales, that doesn't seem to have improved their national team. Back ON TOPIC, has anyone come up with a reason why we should not be trying to sell tickets for the ENG v NZ tests to the FOUR MILLION people who missed out on World Cup tickets in a bid to grow international RL and get Sam Burgess back where he belongs?

Yes...because it's a stupid reasoning wrapped in an idiotic idea, sugar coated with unbelievable naivety.

The missing 4 million will now be targeted by the RWC organisers (who know who they are, where they are and how much they were prepared to spend) to shift the remaining 2 million tickets......sally Bolton and 2 tickets for a tenner in Hull ain't going to cut the mustard I'm afraid

So because the RU World Cup are going to try and sell them the turd games they have left, such as Canada v Namibia we shouldn't bother? We have ENG v NZ to sell, surely we can tempt 2% of those people which would be 80000 to come along.

Your job is to say to yourself on a job interview does the hiring manager likes me or not. If you aren't a particular manager's cup of tea, you haven't failed -- you've dodged a bullet.

Only 2 tickets for a £10 in Hull is a figment of your imagination

McDermott is going. I actually think he is more relaxed because of it, and seems to have let the shackles go. He apparently asked to finish the season, and that is what they agreed.

Crikey is he still trotting that one out ?
Like most Union apologists, he just makes it up as he goes along when it comes to crowds, tickets & viewing figures.

Re: Sam Burgess : Thu Oct 30, 2014 1:34 pm  
Its because he was shown to be an idiot when he suggested nobody would go and watch the RLWC. Fortunately he was proved to be so inaccurate it was laughable. So his only defence is it was only achieved through cheap tickets
