        • Even better. Opens up the cap to fill that spot too.

    • 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. 

  • 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

  • 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. 

  •  

     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. "
