He was one of the fourteen 1908-09 Wallabies including [[Chris McKivat]], [[Charles McMurtie]], [[Charles Russell (rugby)| "Boxer" Russell]] and [[Arthur McCabe]] who defected to [[rugby league]] after their return from the Olympics and the epic tour. In Burge's case he joined his brother Alby in the 1909 "Wallabies v Kangaroos" promotional match which then disqualified him from the amateur code.
He joined the [[South Sydney Rabbitohs]] in 1910 but then the following year linked with Albert and [[Frank Burge|Frank]] at [[Glebe Dirty(rugby Redsleague team)|Glebe]]. He toured Great Britain with the [[1911-12 Kangaroos]], captained by his former Wallaby and then Glebe captain, [[Chris McKivat]]. He made four tour matches appearances for Australia.
 
Along with McMurtie and [[Bob Stuart (rugby)|Bob Stuart]], Peter Burge made his international league debut in a tour match on that 1911 tour but did not play in any Tests. Collectively they were therefore Australia's 17th to 19th dual-code rugby internationals.
