That's certainly interesting. As long as he comes back to league I don't care who it's with.

However much I would love this to happen, can't see it

Interesting article, I would like to see him back obviously but would say that the NRL would probably be where he goes, as someone said further up, I don't mind who he goes to as long as he comes back to league.

I think I remember him saying when he switched codes that the main reason was to play in the union world cup so the article might be right in suggesting he will switch back afterwards, maybe after this union season is over.

If he does come back I wouldn't be surprised if it were in super league if only for one season. Firstly it's a more gentle reintroduction to RL than the NRL would be and secondly it would give him a shot at a challenge cup and SL grand final ring.

There is the small matter of a contract with Bath rugby union club.

There is an individual who,apparently,will ignore the salary cap,so it is a possibility.

How can any player resist the lure of Leigh Centurions?

It's all part of the 2 yrs plan.

It has to be more exciting playing for 'Gladiator Des' than some Aussie acting luvvie.

Just when I thought this week couldn't get any worse, the thought of seeing Sam Burgess in a Rhinos shirt makes me sick to my stomach.

Not them, Sam. Anyone but them

might take the bunnies some time to free up space on their cap. South Sydney would obviously be his choice destination but as echoed as long as it's a RL shirt I don't mind

If all the NRL have already done their cap money for next year and Sam wants an immediate return to RL, i could see him doing a year in SL before a return to the NRL with Souths in 2017.

Would be an amazing coup all round for the comp., and obviously huge for the club that pulled it off.

I doubt he'll come to SL. His main reason for going to RU was supposedly to play on the big stage. Assuming the coaching staff at England walk the plank he'll never be picked as a centre again, and will have to properly lean his trade as a forward before being considered. Given the negative publicity now, I reckon a different England coach would wait until his form absolutely forced his inclusion before picking him. That could well mean a good couple of years playing club level only.

I don't think he'll leave Bath early, but I think the odds on him returning to the NRL at some stage have increased dramatically.
