No suprise tbh, he signed before he won a premiership and dally m centre.
I get that he hasnt proven himself as a half yet, but his manager wouldn't be doing his job if they didn't test the market.

Personally I feel we should over a small upgrade / bonus incentives for improvements where possible within the cap

Still it wouldnt shock if he did test the market. Testing the market is something they all do. Price pumping is another. Testing the market doesnt mean he hates us and cant wait to leave lol.

Coming from faux, it is deliberate, the muck rakers and the haters there won't be happy to let us enjoy a win for a second, they've already got the next rumour going. Wonder how Gus will handle this.

Assuming this is the upgrade everybody has been talking about?

Gus is a smart operator. He'll either keep him if he thinks he's worth it or go after Munster and open our premiership window sooner rather than later.
Also if Melbourne lose Munster, as if they wouldn't offer Burton a deal. If I was Burton I'd want to hold off signing anything early and let form dictate his value once Mahoney and Kikau arrive. If we still suck 10 rounds in then leave.
