                If Ryles goes Burton, that is his future 6 I reckon. Remember, Ryles went for Galvin with Lorenzo at the club.

      • longfin what do you mean best years are behind him at 26

    • Burton goes alright. He's not the most gifted ball player or creative player but he has a good running game, good defender, and a very good kicking. Next to Moses and Iongi he will play his role well. Just need a decent back rower and centre outside of him. 

  • Nope. He is a centre that can kick.

    • Fair, though clubs will pay him as a 6. Let's see him with a proper 7 though. Who knows. 

    • Can i suggest you guys watch last night.....Christ I cannot believe you would not look at this gift horse....offer him 1m before someone else does!

      • He was playing the Storm (who are playing terribly) with both Grant and Munster out - and the Storms second half was shockingly bad.

        Credit where it's due, he played very well as did Kiraz and Galvin. I wouldn't pay $1m for any of them though.

      • So after one game? And he was playing like a fullback 

  • Burton is a true left side player. He and JAC had a lethal combination at the Dogs. I wouldn't be surprised if JAC recommended him to Ryles.

    • Agreed. DB was never a natural right to left kicker and adding a left footer gives us a dynamic we haven't had in a long time. If true Burton is a cracking buy. I said a while ago when everyone was saying he would go to Perth for the coin that it was a big move for a guy with a young family. It's possible he is very comfortable in moving to the centres if Lorenzo develops into a must pick. Burton would also be a great backrower in the modern game
