Prosecutors are considering an extraordinary appeal against a judge s decision to clear retired NRL star Sam Burgess of intimidating his former father-in-law Mitchell Hooke.
The New South Wales Office of the Director of Public Prosecutions has indicated it is looking at a rare legal move which could send the Burgess case back to court.
Burgess, who has always maintained his innocence, believed the matter was resolved and began rebuilding his life after the conviction was finally overturned last month.
The 32-year-old has recently been training with bodybuilding pastor Rob Quatro on Queensland s Gold Coast where he attended a Pentecostal church service.
