He should be lock over Salmon. Genuinely amazes me how fucking shit Salmon is yet he gets the start over other players.
IMO, privately CC does acknowledge the importance of having a better and more effective directions but has no choice but pick Burton at 5/8...Worth a try. We need some (effective)direction.
I think the focus needs to be on ineffective forwards rather than always blaming Burton. Give him some alpha props around him and a decent half back and then let's see how he performsIMO, privately CC does acknowledge the importance of having a better and more effective directions but has no choice but pick Burton at 5/8...
The question is how long must the team suffer from Burton's inability to perform as a there as a 5/8 ?
I believe Burton should be open minded by playing where he is best at serving the team for now, then when the team is better settled and he gains more skills I am all for moving him back there,
It's a combination of a few different problems atm.IMO, privately CC does acknowledge the importance of having a better and more effective directions but has no choice but pick Burton at 5/8...

One golden rule in sport, you always play to your own strength !I think the focus needs to be on ineffective forwards rather than always blaming Burton. Give him some alpha props around him and a decent half back and then let's see how he performs
Absolutely, I have nothing but admirations for Burton, but he is still learning as a 5/8, not having a leading halfback is hindering his progress...It's a combination of a few different problems atm.
Bring in Sexton for Hutch and if Critta isn’t moved to fb (to get more involved and give us a bigger back 5) then play him at right centre to be Sexy’s bodyguard. Critta is more of a weapon on the right as hej ams in and nails blokes.Mann is doing the job he already has and doing well. Why move him.
Sexton to come in for hutch is what we need to do. And whoever says sexton can’t even mark his centre bla bla. He’s not meant to mark the centre he’s defending inside perham and co I’m confident he’d be better when defending inside presto and kiraz
I think that’s hurting us having Morrin and Mann on the bench. It was exacerbated on Friday night after losing Poasa early. Just not enough size in the middle atm. We actually did really for 60minsHe should stay at lock interchanging with Curran.
Ciro needs to make a decision on Salmon/Morrin or another Forward.
It's intentional from Ciraldo. King has only played 42 and 44 minutes during our opening 2 games. Meanwhile we have both Salmon and Mann playing bigger minutes. At one point we had Salmon, Mann and Morrin on together....I don't know wtf he's smokingI think that’s hurting us having Morrin and Mann on the bench.

It would just be based off the back of who put in hardest in preseason and he’s rewarded them with spot in the 17. He’ll definitely have to change it up soon. I know Morrin would do all the right things at training and during the week but we can’t afford to carry him at the moment IMO.It's intentional from Ciraldo.

I understand the notion training hard and get rewarded for your efforts. However, that mentality has not worked for CC. He persisted with Perham and there is a possibility he may do the same with Salmon, Hutch and Taaffe.It would just be based off the back of who put in hardest in preseason and he’s rewarded them with spot in the 17.

He has a few more options than last year so I’m confident he’ll make some changes soon. He’ll have a forced change this week with Poasa out but he’ll have to make a decision on Taffe if Fox is back. I thought Tracey was solid considering he had a really limited preseason.I understand the notion training hard and get rewarded for your efforts. However, that mentality has not worked for CC.

Gould thinks Salmon is a future international and been saying since he was 9 years old.He should be lock over Salmon. Genuinely amazes me how fucking shit Salmon is yet he gets the start over other players.
I wouldn't be burning out King or Hughes either.It's intentional from Ciraldo. King has only played 42 and 44 minutes during our opening 2 games. Meanwhile we have both Salmon and Mann playing bigger minutes. At one point we had Salmon, Mann and Morrin on together....I don't know wtf he's smoking
Once Patolo/Knight/Sutto/Tetz/Fafita are ready i'd be shocked if we see Salmon/Morrin and Mann in the same team.I think that’s hurting us having Morrin and Mann on the bench.
