South Sydney skipper Sam Burgess is reportedly battling an infection in the wake of his shoulder surgery.

South Sydney captain Sam Burgess has reportedly been ruled out of NRL action indefinitely as he battles an infection which has set back his return from shoulder surgery.

Burgess has been sidelined for over a month following surgery on a previously re-constructed shoulder and had hoped to return against North Queensland on Saturday before being omitted.

News Corp Australia is reporting Burgess has had a drip inserted to control an infection, attending hospital daily to get it tended to.
