if that really is the case, why not 'rest'(drop) him for a few weeks.

He was rested last week but still seems way short of been fully match fit.
I thought it a strange decision from BM to state that he intended to give the forwards a rest when possible, to then omit Burgess this week only to play him in the reserves. If we are going to rotate the props, then a rest should surely mean a week without playing a game, not turning out for the 2nd team.

I said just the same somewhere a bit earlier!

I think I've said somewhere on here,

Pass it Barnstoneworth..... get it away Barnstoneworth..... oh Barnstoneworth.

Different sport but does the trick for any Ripping Yarn fans out there.

Hall man-of-the-match for me last night ... At least he tried, which is more than can be said for a lot of them out there.

So the others didn't
I would say it's more to the fact we are not playing well rather than lack of effort.
