    Default if only hey!!

    if only sam burgess was at saints eh! he was absolutely outstanding all year at bradford and has just showed everyone how experienced his head is though he is only 18. An amazing performance by the lad last nioght really glad for him and although we have props that are great this guy wouldn't be a bad buy either would he. just wish i could happen but there isnt much of a chance but o well great play bt trhe youngster deserves all the congrats he gets

    Along with Graham he's going to be the cornerstone of GB's front row for many years to come.

    There have been many Props burst onto the scene with very high hopes of them and the tag "cornerstone for years to come".

    Lets hope the tag isn't too heavy and he continues his progress.

    well we have allways had good props in GB are pack has been are gratist strength for decakads
    Engineering is the art of modeling materials we do not fully understand,
    into shapes we cannot precisely analyse so as to withstand forces we cannot properly predict
    in such a fashion that the public has no reason to suspect the extent of our ignorance.

    I AM DYSLEXIC SO I HAVE BAD SPELLING, thank you

    Knight Shadow...now with fire fox spell check! thanks guys and ladies!

    I wouldn't say props have been our greatest strength for decades. We've had Fielden and Peacock (formerly back rower) of any repute. The rest were decent, but not to rival what the Aussies and Kiwis have.

    If GB has had a strength in recent years, it's been ball-playing back rowers.

    But yeah Burgess has been excellent this year, best of luck to him and from a GB point of view I hope he maintains it. The first seasons when you're an unknown quantity give you a bit of advantage though, we'll see if he reaches his expected standard in 4-5 years when playing professional rugby is his job rather than his dream come true.
