South Sydney captain Sam Burgess has broken his silence about his club’s sexting controversy, declaring “I am happy for the truth to come out”.

Fronting reporters at Redfern Oval on Tuesday ahead of Saturday night’s blockbuster against the Sydney Roosters, Burgess said he could not go into details about the investigation into an alleged lewd video chat involving players.

"I'm not going into the detail of anything," he told reporters.

"I am happy for the truth to come out. That's going to be my answer to the majority of your questions."
