Tom Burgess jokes about satisfying his sexual cravings before NRL games

‘The poison is out!’ Tom Burgess jokes about satisfying his sexual cravings before NRL games – ahead of the Roosters vs Rabbitohs showdown

He is getting ready for the blockbuster showdown between Sydney’s NRL rivals, the Roosters and the Rabbitohs, in tonight’s 2019 season opener at the SCG.

And Rabbitohs prop Tom Burgess hinted on Friday that his pre-game routine includes satisfying his sexual needs.

In a rather surprising admission, the 26-year-old league star told The Kyle and Jackie O Show: ‘The poison is out for me!’

Tom made the confession during a bawdy interview with radio hosts Kyle Sandilands, Jackie ‘O’ Henderson and Beau Ryan – who is also a retired NRL player. 

Earlier in the segment, Beau and Kyle had discussed the theory that it’s better for sportsmen not to masturbate or have sex in the days leading up to a big game.

Both men agreed this is actually counterproductive, and it’s probably better for athletes to ‘get the poison out’ (i.e. ejaculate) before stepping onto the field.

When Tom joined the conversation, it didn’t take long for Kyle to ask him for his personal views on the matter.

‘When you hit the ground, is the poison out? Or are you running with the poison in?’ Kyle asked.

‘Poison is out for me,’ Tom said with a laugh, before Kyle replied: ‘He knows what he’s doing!’
