"Coryn last week you were making similar offers to land Farnworth. So to your thinking we'd have Moses, Burton and Farnworth chewing up more than one third of our entire salary cap. There's another 27 other players to squeeze into 8 mill, that's not…"
"Yeah and why did he get big coin? Cause he was playing 5/8.
Sorry AE I just do not see how people think he would be ok with playing Centre. You say he left for big coin, but how did he get it? Because of the position he was set to play. 5/8's earn…"

"welcome anyone , as long as they can improve especially under our coach and his staff . just saying. "
"I know that Coryn, it's same as people saying he would be happy with Centre when he can get 5/8 money.
Im saying same as you.
Although, Perth has this money, yet signed nobody. Why?"

You cannot use playing rep footy at Centre as an example that he's happy to play it week in week out as to play for your state and country you'll play anywhere as there are other great players in your position. Kenny played Centre when Lewis played 6 for Australia as the example.
We can see what is happening at Dogs. They have Galvin, new toy, need to put him somewhere and Halfback is not working, so Burton odd man out as Dogs will look at a 7 as well. It's quite simple really.
Offer him a deal to start at 6 but no guarentees to stay there? He will just say thanks but no thanks I'll go to Perth and earn slightly more and play 6 full time.
Only way I would see him being content playing Centre is going back to Penrith to win comps.
You also say Dogs have 2 great Centres, 3 doesn't go into 2. Have you not seen Xerri being linked with leaving? If Burton said he was fine playing Centre he would stay at Dogs and they would keep him.
Also reason Perth may not have gotten him by now is simply he was not available or didn't make himself available. They of course would've reached out and said keep us in mind but with the revelation of Gus saying Galvin is not long term 7 that now brings teams into it.
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
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.
Dogs would pitch in for next year you would assume. $750k is a decent price for an experienced 5/8 with rep level experience and a premiership winner.
Though to get him over i reckon you need to go $850k. Which even then i feel is not too bad.
You guys are optimistic man I'm telling you Burton is getting over 7 fighures if he is released and it's multi year and the above plus.Perth would be the team for me there about to get dispensation from the nrl and they'll be able to blow away Sydney teams with there offer years TPAs and just straight up salary I doubt many if any Sydney teams will be able to match what they offer.
