I’m a big union fan but Sam Burgess helped bridge that gap between the two codes for me. A phenomenal player who will go down as one of the all time greats. Such a shame that union made him a scapegoat.
Sam Burgess will be remembered alongside Greg Inglis - and together they gave hope and glory to ( literally ) generations of South Sydney faithfuls - the guy has a football heart that has earned respect.
As a broncos fan I’m so sad to hear that he is retiring. The first time I heard about this was when I was at school and I got notification from the NRL saying he was retiring.
What a great forward Sam has been. Skilful, committed, tough and a great leader of men. I’m sad to see him end his career this way. He’ll be impossible to replace, I can’t think of anyone to fill his boots. Thanks for your total commitment to the Rabbitohs Sam.
Only by the public schoolboys in the press and those that run the game in England. They hated him not just because he was a league player and was working class but he was the worst kind of working class to them - he was northern working class. I think he got more respect from union worldwide than he did in within the leadership of English rugby. F'kin toffs
@@EllliotJackRussel1 So why is Italy unpopular with Rugby union? Even in the Six Nations Championship, Stadio Olympico is not crowded. There are a lot of empty stands. Benetton Rugby team is even more disastrous...If you watch Pro 14, you can't find the spectators...

God bless you all , Jesus loves you all only he can save u repent and turn from your sins and accept Jesus as Lord and saviour and you will be saved. He is the only way to eternal life in heaven once you pass away its too late . ❤✝️...

No respect for his body absolute machine
Just pips Morley as the best Englishman to play in the NRL in my opinion here's my list Burgess, Morley, O'Reilly, Hanley
The best to ever do it.
One word (CHAMPION)
What a beast 💪
You will be dearly missed 😔😢
Just the best
WTF this should be a 10mon video where is the fuifui hit

Imagine latrell running the ball up like this
he is gonna make a great coach UP THE BURGESS
as a union player and fan,it is to the eternal shame of union the way he was treated,set up to fail.

F'kin toffs
He is still the best English player I ever 👍👍👍
Ellery Hanley was better....
Omg my 2 favourite players retired in the same year 💀 first G.I now big slammin sam?
Beast
If one could get Rod Reddy and Ray Price then clone them, Sam Burgess would be the result.
Should have put the 2015 World Cup in there lol
Union > League
Both class sports. League=union.
I like both better than soccer.

Great player but unfortunately he has tarnished his reputation recently.

Yeah hope he got his 65 year old father in law a good one when he assaulted him...
Sam's a cool guy but knocks on more times than I can remember.. sorry Sam but you got butter fingers bud.
You're getting him confused with his brother!
Both of the twins
