Nasheed here,
uncomfortable fact for us.
Burton has looked solid as a centre this year but toothless as a half.

Perhaps we can use him at centre, and have SJ and averillo in the halves for an exciting combo?

Didn't he have a really good game last week to quell the doubters?

Terrible idea, played brilliantly at halfback last week and wants to play halfback, if he wanted centre he d stay at Penrith. The more games he gets, he ll be a superstar at halfback.

He is coming to us to play in the halves..
He could’ve just stayed at Penrith to play in the centre’s..
He wants to steer a team.
If we played him at centre, I could see him wanting out after 1 year

i thought he wanted 5/8?

But we could just say it to get him here then switch it up like we did cotric.

Doubt he’ll cop that, pretty sure he’s guaranteed no.6

Get what you are saying about how he has gone in the halves, but we have to remember that he’s still very young, as is Avo. They will need time.

Must admit I’ve come around to getting Johnson on board to partner him in the halves and put Avo back to no.1 and play him as a genuine 2nd 5/8.

Nope Burton needs to be in the halves. He will have too much influence on the match not too.

I get that he will start there, but could he get the switch early on if he doesnt hit hte ground running and avo plays better?

Killed it last week.
Only had 1 not great game at half from memory.
But hey, let’s put him at centre and just enjoy him for the 2 fk’n years we’ll only end up having him for if we play him there….

Show me a half who has came onto the scene and absolutely killed it his first year?

Cleary only started to dominate last year. That Sam Walker kid is starting to get found out after shining in a couple of games.
Even Thurston didn't look like the great halfback that he would become when he was coming off the bench with limited minutes and few starts. Give him time..

He has proven he has the agility and strength to be a centre. He can kick, but does he have organisational skills.
Or should we use him for a couple years in centre then perhaps move him once he has experience?

Is it really so weird to suggest a player play in the position that he plays in?

He's been training at centre and playing at centre. He got thrown back into the halves with not much preparation due to origin duties. He got 3 Dally Ms in early rounds when Cleary was out with HIA playingin the halves. Sometimes you sound like you know what you're talking about but most of the time you show us that you have absolute shit for brains. I can see why you are so hated in here, it's not because you are a Leb or whatever race card you pull... its because you are an absolute fucking flog!!!
