I’m also one who thinks it’s not correct saying “players don’t try”. Of course they do

For a winger who left Wigan in 2015 scoring tries for fun, gained NRL experience and scored spectacular tries against Cronulla Sharks in 2017, his form since then has left a hell of a lot to be desired! Dont misunderstand me, despite the fact I think 2019 was considerably poor for him, when either fully fit or full of confidence he is the best attacking winger we have!No straw damn us wrote: ↑Wed Nov 20, 2019 10:37 amCheshireWarrior wrote: ↑Tue Nov 19, 2019 3:11 pmI think Marshall is very worthy of his Number 2 jersey but he isn't as effective (overall) as Davies, Manfredi and Burgess (when he can be ars*d to play)!
I heard directly from a Leigh Centurions player that they were rumoured to be taking Dom on loan but, this was before Tom Davies signed for Catalans and I haven't spoken to him since!
I think it's a bit harsh on Burgess. He had no pre-season after his ACL injury and was clearly low on confidence. There were a couple of good signs during the season but he was nowhere near back to his best. I do think its a confidence thing with him. If he could run in a few long range tries then I expect he could return to the Joe Burgess of old.
With a full pre-season behind him this time, here's hoping, because an in form Joe Burgess is one of superleagues best wingers.
