Since he joined Bath I have regularly followed his progress in the game via their forum which is very active. I would like him to stay and be a force there and the Bath coach is adamant Burgess has told him he wants to stay. We shall see.

As a matter of interest Bath Rugby Club were formed in 1865 so the club are also celebrating their 150 year anniversary.

Yeh, we had a cross code game with Bath at their ground planned for semi final weekend last season, if we had not progressed in the competition, but they changed their Chief Executive and apparently he didn't like RL and that was that.

Says everything about most of that mob

well we do need another second row

Looks like Hayne could be on his way back also . Reports says he's been cut from the 49's .

really bout Hayne? Another NFL club will pick him up I'm sure.

and I think Burgess will stay at Barth

Tinterweb quoting "Sam Burgess leaves Bath with immediate effect"

Gone back to Souths, I'm surprised, thought he might have stuck it out. Best of luck to him. Treat like a pariah by the "kick and clap" brigade.

hes a big lad and sticks and stones wont have bothered him and he I would imagine have been on mega bucks,just hasn't worked out for him and I feel a bit sorry for bath in all this
