He's got no excuses to show something this year.

We have strike weapons in Kikau, Crichton, JAC, Xerri, Preston, Hutchison/Sexton, so no longer will teams be able predict we're only going to go to one side and Burton to create. He will have the freedom he needs.

Yes
Obviously he does not want the responsibilities or owning the team
Too lay back

Go Hutchinson and sexton
Burton in centres (hungry)
We played so much better second half with sexton Hutchinson. Sexton ran better and more direct than Burton.

He's also at a disadvantage that the coach seems to treat him as if he's infallible.
Like the mid field bombs are great, they don't help our team win footy games but look really impressive from the coaches box. Keep up the great work

Never got around to doing this? Or tried and found his game wasn't nearly as bad as you remember?
I did but I didn't bother reporting back as that would've started another back and forward. It was as bad as I remembered btw.

Has Burton ever played in the centres for the Dogs? Or has he been five-eight in every game?

More veiled attacks on CC after not a bad performance by the team…Obviously a trial with a defensive focus. Burton actual Stats from last year. I thinkTurbo posted shut these numb nuts up. I think the pups showed some flair against some ordinary opposition and the usual crew know what a 6 should be.

Always 5/8, I vaguely recall him playing FB for 10 minutes once, can't remember if that was a trial game or a game when we got hit with injuries.

I don't what the club was thinking when they gave Burton the responsibility of being captain.

They should strip all responsibilities from him and just let him concentrate on his job.

Strip the captaincy and give the goal kicking to Critta.

Set themselves up for failure as the bloke can't talk.

He had a bad game, he was awful. Shit kicks, passes missing the mark, low intensity, stupid challenges, etc. He cops it because he's held to a higher standard and he isn't getting close to delivering. I'm embarrassing as a fan? He's embarrassing as a captain.
Bad game hahahahah, he literally looked dangerous taking on the line near every time if you actually watch the game. Bad passes? He give xerri one when he went into touch, gave him another one and he nearly scored. Was he unreal? no, was he bad? no , just people like you trying to shit on him weirdly, id be first to say if he had a stinker and he just didnt

After rewatching the trial on youtube i still don't understand the narrative that he was poor. Apart from two kicks where he got the depth wrong, he created some good opportunities for taafe and xerri (who nearly got over the line), good kick chase which trapped pezet in goal, and nearly scored a try himself. The rest of our attacking shape went to the right.
Genuinely hahahahah, like he really didnt even play poor, people in here claiming to be fans didnt watch the game

Nothing veiled, CC has to prove himself after the disaster that he orchestrated last year

Just watched him on let's trot....fuck he's an idiot...how's this bloke capable of thinking a few plays ahead. I was a massive fan but wtf

PS I don't think he's disinterested, he's just dumb. I just hope I've missed something that Ciro and the coaching staff see. Explains the effort last year, I'd be a lazy fuck too if my captain was as dumb as Burto.
