They definitely wait for him to fuck up and then pounce on that, ignore any of the good things he's done and say "see, that's why he should be in the centres", or "he's so shit.. We'd be better off with Hutch and Sexton in the halves" which is laughable..
We would be better.
Definitely not he made 1 mistake wow
You watched that game & were impressed by Burton? We wont get close to the 8 if that's the level that Burton plays.
Yup Kikau has never been a massive metre eater back rower. He's a beast in defence and he needs a half that puts him in space. Burton doesn't do that at all.
Cleary played on the other side & didn't have much to do with Kikau-Burton & To'o.
He may be a "better centre" playing outside Luai and Cleary (Cleary plays both sides, nice try) but would he be a better centre playing outside our 1/2 and 5/8? Personally I don't think so.
Easily. He's been a terrible 6 for us.
I never said I was impressed I just said I don’t believe you can hate on a guy after that game like play by play tell me where and when he failed?
He didn't run it enough. He didn't direct his edge enough. Didn't give good ball to the players outside him. Didn't get involved enough. Missed 3/15 tackles.
According to our fanbase Hutch and Sexton are better than Luai and Cleary...
So what, firstly that's your opinion and even if true proves nothing, he might be even worse at centre outside our 1/2 and 5/8 who are all of lessor quality than him.
Don't waste your time bro.. If you say he wasn't horrible and still has things to improve on, somehow you're jerking off over him... Meanwhile they'll ignore any good things Burton does or all of the bad things the other halves did and the flaws they have in their games.
How many touches did he get in good ball?
He’ll only improve with Critta outside him too, if that’s how Ciro plays him.
