LIST: The 5 huge Gallagher Premiership signings who flopped

What a corker to start off with. The rugby league superstar was signed for Bath Rugby on huge money, joining in October 2014.

His inclusion and performances at the Rugby World Cup were widely scrutinized, and seen by some pundits as partly to blame for England's "humiliating" early pool stage exit from the tournament—the worst result for a host nation in the tournament's history.

And following the disastrous campaign, Burgess quit rugby union after just 12 months, opting to return to South Sydney Rabbitohs, signing a three-year contract.

An absolute flop.

Who Else? The centre will go down as the worst value for money transfer in rugby history we'd imagine.

Arriving in 2016, despite solid form for England during this stint, the Warriors fans barely saw him in his three years at Sixways, which is not what you want from your highest paid player.

Waste of money.

This signing had every Sale fan very excited with the Scottish powerhouse penning a three-year contract.

However, the giant Scot would only stay for one season, playing 16 underwhelming matches, scoring one try before joining French club Castres.

Never had such a big man, done so little.

What can you say about this man that hasn’t already been said? Henson had not played professional Rugby for 18 months before joining Sarries in 2010 but was an exciting addition nevertheless with the 33-cap Wales international making his debut on boxing day.

After failing to break into the team regularly, Henson secured the release from his contract in February 2011 and joined Toulon shortly after.

A deal that offered so much, but delivered nothing.

Signed for the club 11th Jan 2011 but was registered under his Aussie passport and therefore cost the club 2 points and £5000 for fielding too many overseas players.

He was then convicted of drink driving, banned from the road for 18 months, and released by the club in May 2011.

He failed to score a single try in his four appearances for the Chiefs. His career has done nothing but rise ever since so that's nice.
