SAM TOUGH ON DUF

..but axed star Matt hopes to get back onside with Burgess

- BY DAVE CRAVEN

AXED Warrington star Matt Dufty will do whatever is needed to get back in Sam Burgess' good books.

The marquee Aussie fullback was dropped for their recent clash with champions Wigan after missing a training session.

And boss Burgess left him out for a second week running in Thursday night's 30-22 win over Catalans.

Dufty was expected to return in that game but Burgess explained afterwards that instead he will play for Warrington's reserves at Wigan this lunchtime.

Speaking publicly about his disciplinary matter for the first time, the 29 year-old said: "Listen, it's not best for the team what's gone on.

"It's been my fault. And obviously me and Sammy have a really good relationship.
