How did that grub gburgearse stay on the field?

Fortunate for Farah that he wasn't glassed by the low life ex pat.

If Farah was wearing glasses he'd be looking for the right lens.

Seriously though it's one of the lowest acts, along with testicle squeezing another Burgess specialty.

Didn't George also get cited for loose and swinging elbows to an opponets chin last year sometime. He really has an attitude and has got grubbier as time goes by.

Some time on the sidelines will make the game a safer place.

Only 9 weeks?
ffs souffs. ....

At least Hopoate had his his finger up where he couldn’t do much damage unlike burgess who could’ve blinded Farah in one eye. Also what does burgess lose? Nothing! He gets paid full wages whilst having a 9 week break. He should be penalised a quarter of his payments of that period and given to the men of league.

Hes fast becoming a perfect fit for the Storm. Should suit their style of play perfectly!

Now most codes have gone all PC and out ruled the biff, get used to players resorting to this shit on a regular basis. No joke give it 30 years and sports like league will be a memory.

HARDLY A TRAGEDY

There were plenty of raised eyebrows among the game's leaders as they heard Shane Richardson do his best to paint George Burgess as the victim of the eye gouging saga.

Richo said it was a 'tragedy' Burgess had been rubbed out for nine game for digging his fingers into Robbie Farah's eyes.

He also portrayed the Englishman as a good family man.

It was no tragedy - it was an absolute disgrace that should have led to a longer ban.

And what has being a good family man got to do with it?

Richo did himself or Burgess no favours

How do you know a finger up the bum can’t do much damage?
(Not that there’s anything wrong with it).
