Lots of rumors im seeing on social media. Has anyone herd this? Are we happy with this if it happens? I think burto/moses could be lethal

It is when the market is so competitive and you have a half that's in the latter part of his career and the kicker you've got nothing that looks like nrl quality in your outside back ranks.
We are so devoid there.I mean at one point way back when how much would a Semi Radradra be worth in todays market.Going for Burton is also a move we could make but with out those horses on the outside I think we are still in the same situation we are in now.
You say paying a million for a centre is not smart cap management but your thinking is too narrow and is conventional thinking. Our overarching goal is obviously to build a premiership team within the confines of the cap. Conventional thinking is to start with your spine. For the sake of the conversation let's throw out the below numbers and players
7- Moses $1.4
1- Iongi $600k
6- Lorenzo $200k
9- Riley and TDS $900k
We are still probably $1.5million less in our spine that what Melbourne has traditionally been paying. So where else do match winners come from? Centre or Wing. Apart from JAC we are extremely weak in this area.
Herbie makes us a better defensive team, a better attacking team, he would attract more defenders giving more space for Lorenzo or JAC. He also likes to roam and pop up on the right hand side at times which adds another dimension and makes him worth as much as a fullback to an extent
For me it's a no brainer.
Don't think he would need to recommend him. Ryles would have know all about him before chasing, if they are chasing. If anything, Ryles asked JAC his opinion of playing alongside Burto.
The only people we need to sign from the dogs are.
1. Jack Underhill - what a beast of a player and so young. Will be a origin prop.
2. Xerrie - is the most dangerous left side centre we could get for 2027, if he goes to market will be an excellent replacement for Russell.
How good was underhill sunshine coast boy. People on here say there are no players around Hahahaha. Xerri would be a good get. Burton is overpaid on performance.
He is honestly a great player already would be stoked to sign him
JR has already declined on the Xerri interest he did that a few months ago when the unrest at the Dogs first came about.
A Moses / Burton halves combination should work well. Burton for 2 or 3 years on a contract similar to or below the reported $875,000 per season he is currently on.
875000 is too much for him. I won't go above 700.
I misread. Burton is reported to be on $750,000 for this year and next. Anything around that figure would be ok.
