Defensive technique for a backrower vs a centre is very different as there is less space. I don't think his 1 on 1 is to bad it is more his decision making putting him in wrong position where players with speed expose him.
Can't be any worse than some of the of backrowers defensively that we have had but I think he runs a lot harder and would be more effective in attack them many of our options. Our depth at centre is covered by Samrani and Nanva.

His decision making is bad and his 1 on 1 tackling is bad . How many times have you seen him have a guy dead to rights on a kick chase and the guy gets away? Or the opposition throw a loose ball out the back and he can't finish the tackle on the guy who cleans the ball up ? He is a woeful footballer who just doesn't have the concentration , IQ or competitive fire to win 1 on 1 battles . I can't believe we've persisted with him this long . It may sound harsh but I just honestly feel he's that bad . I can remember him having some promising performances early in his career but there are so many bad habits in his game now here is not the place for him in centre or any other position. I'd say he'd be better of going to rugby where he wouldn't have to make so many decisions or move as quickly and his confrontational running might be of benefit but he would have a long way to go to get up to the skill level required there too. He can't even catch and pass. I feel he's been a walk up starter in our side for that long now something has gone wrong . He hasn't developed his skills or progressed as a footballer and the basic fundamentals in his game have gone be the wayside. Maybe it's him being comfortable , maybe he hit his ceiling early , maybe the modern game passed him by and he's struggled to keep touch with it ... whatever the reason if we re-sign him we are deadset kidding .
"You just said Burton is against it, so therefore good chance of it not happening. If a team wants Lorenzo and there is a clear path to FG, he will take it. As for kids earning their stripes. It's nice in theory but not the real world in sports. I…"
"His long kick is relied on by Dogs as they don't have anyone else. He has a killer bomb and a long kick but not the accuracy like Moses. Having Moses taking the majority of kicks makes Burton's bomb more of a weapon."
"Two year deal for Burton is also OK.
Burton is not an organiser but his kicking can make him a makeshift 7 when Moses not there maybe too?
Also Burton can be a 13 maybe. He has the body.
I think Lorenzo does still need NRL, like 5-7 games a year…"
