[QUOTE="TRF_stormer2010, post: 683585, member: 39190"] While I do think people should be careful to have unrealistic expectations which I can't see too many of in a quick read I do think there is a huge amount to get excited about just because of Burgess' erm.. spec's if I can put it like that. He doesn't need to be Dan Carter, Read or Matt Giteau ITO rugby union nouse to make an impact for England in Union. It's not like Willem Alberts is the epitomy of grace and footballing skill but damn, are we missing his presence for the Bokke. Burgess is as big? or near enough as big? but more agile so if I were an Englishman and/or Bath fan I too would be getting very excited indeed. No need to rain on anybody's parade before the fact.
