Message: [QUOTE="Morkel, post: 3088336, member: 8215"] I know a lot has been said about Gillett being re-signed while injured, but at least as far as injury-related retirement is concerned, the injury he may be retiring for (shoulder) is completely different to the one he had when he was re-signed (neck). If he is legit done at the top level, there is no reason the NRL should reject such an application. As [USER=8274]@I bleed Maroon[/USER] said, it may be a positive that Burgess is in a similar situation. Judging by his off-season conduct, it would appear that he is more able-bodied than Gillett, meaning if they approve Burgess' retirement, Gillett's should be a no-brainer (I know elite-level league is somewhat more demanding that giving a chick a shoulder-ride, but it speaks volumes as to how seriously Burgess is treating his injury). The NRL loves Burgess, loves Souths, and want Bennett to succeed at somewhere other than the Broncos so any favour they show to them will only help our case. [/QUOTE]
