He gets targeted alright, but not with ball in hand.Biggest problem with Burton is he’s been targeted, he’s really been our mail point of attack, shut him down and who else was really a huge threat, hopefully 2023 is the season where we have multiple threats from Critta, Taaffe, Kikau and a bunch of the new blokes, free’s up Burton more to hopefully run the ball and do his thing, less injuries would be nice as well.
Burton can run the ball all he wants ... It is 100% on him. I would much rather be complaining about him being a hog ala Polly.
The staggeringly frustrating part of it is that by running the ball his passing options will open up ... He would have been told this over and over by the coaching staff. Peter Sterling used to swear by it.
Next season is massive for Burton.
KO will be sticking at 5/8 with the emergence of Marshall and both will be ready to go come 2025 in my view.
