I’ve been saying give Burto till round 6, but re-watching the try set up by Hutch/Kik’s onto Crichton, Burton had no idea what the play was, had his arms out wanting the ball.
I sometimes think he has the skills to be a good 6, not sure whether he has the smarts .. Hutch may not have all his skills, but he still has some and he’s smarter.
My question is, if it’s still not working for him, what’s wrong with moving him to centre, I believe we’re a stronger team with him at centre anyway?
I’d really like to see Hutch/Salmon at 6 … Sexton/Taaffe at 7 with Curran covering in defence ..
Burton left centre with JAC & Kiks’ .. Crichton right centre with Kiraz and Presto. we have a premiership centre pairing.
And I believe Tracey will do a very solid job for us at FB.
To me that makes us a stronger team.
Unfortunately we’re still going to struggle though, because up front in the engine room we have a V6 racing against V8’s ..
