Averillo position

[Bazildog]

Any doubt left about his position?

Not with me..

Burton can be the best five eighth in the game

EDIT: wrong thread

As @B-Train predicted. I was also laughed at when I said he could be a long term 6 for NSW. He knows Clearys game and he is joined at the hip with Fox..

Short and long kicking game, has pace, a step and can pass. The rest is just time on the job like Thurston says, “the more he plays there, the better he will get”.

Always wanted him at fullback. I’d be happy for him to stay there long term. He just needs to work more on taking those tough carries and the high ball. He will get a lot better

 

[B-Train]

Avo played really well again today. Shows a lot of spark in attack and he has adapted pretty well at fullback defensively and positionally considering how few games he's had there.

 

[silva]

He always looked uncomfortable in the halves and at centre. Seems to be a lot happier now

 

[coach]

Looks more at home at fullback

Thing is. His stint in the halves will actually make him a better player. He knows what to read and when to inject himself in the line as the 3rd playmaker. Just needs to get that fitness level up.

Definitely worth persisting at 1, there is a few flaws in his FB game but its more positives than negatives but this pre season with him hopefully training at FB and maybe possibly under potter within the coaching staff somewhere, the potential is endless for Averillo.

Bloke was relentless behind the line defending our goal, sprinting to cover the play both left and right.

 

[c-b-b]

I didn’t think he’d do that well at fullback. Still has a long way to go but the best he’s played in any position he’s tried.

 

[Donkey Slayer]

I think he has finally found his true position.

How many of us have been saying it yet we have to listen to the spoon lovers make excuses for him that he needed more time with burton at half hahaha

Some members here have said from the get go to have him play fullback
He’s only wanted to play there for 3 years

I was one of them. Pretty sure @Mutt Dafty did too

 

[D.O.W.]

It took over two years for a coach to work out his best position even though he played there in lower grades… take a bow Mick Potter.

 

[Raysie]

How beautiful is he in open space? Just seems to glide out there.

Full credit especially to @Mutt Dafty , backed Avo the whole time and took plenty of shit for it..
The best part is AVO actually has a smile on his face seems to be loving his new role.

I think I had him as 5/8 and then fullback lol...anyway it doesn't matter, looks like fullback is his spot and we've potentially got 3/4 of our spine now sorted heading into next season.

Looks best a fullback, hope he kicks on
