[QUOTE="donmcdazzle, post: 683547, member: 44093"] Haha Burgess is a very good league player, but let's not pretend he is that special. The younger bother already looks to be just as good as he is. Paul Gallen can give you 95% of what Burgess produces week in week out anyway. He might be good at union, he might not. Purely on his physicality he should be decent, I just don't know how much he can offer other than hitting up straight to begin with. I definitely don't think he is a once in a generation athlete - there are a heap of guys in league let alone Union just as big, strong and fast. Jonah Lomu was a once in a generation specimen. Burgess not so much. [/QUOTE]
