Burton is known to be a fairly quiet young lad and I guess the idea was to throw him in at the deep end and get him to open up a bit. It was never going to happen instantaneously hence the co captain Mahoney.
Confirms he doesn't have much going on between the ears. Doesn't speak very eloquently, or have much to say. No wonder we look directionless in attack. Way too introverted to be a leader, let alone a half.
Just a thick country kid, wouldn’t hold it against him. More successful than I’ll ever be lol
I'll hold it against him dw
Needs work
Fuck me, I know footy players are known to be pretty stupid humans but this bloke is supposed to be our leader in the halves and captain. At least other dumb athletes can articulate their reasons more coherently, this was plain embarrassing lol
this made me physically cringe, fuark moi
We can’t call you anything else without a report n ban lol
Wow thought you were all joking but he seems serious enough in his own confused way. I don’t need our players to be Rhodes Scholars but fuck me, watch a bloody sunset.
I think we all agree Burto doesn’t exhibit captain like qualities, my personal view is they wanted him to stick around and make it physiologically harder to defect by granting the honour of team captain… and to validate “the team is his”…. Nothing more.
The clown clan will love Burto now
True, but they all copped more head knocks...
I know... TK is a shell of its former self without your witty toaster bath related repartee. Some people have no sense of fun!
This is at least partly true, and is the reason Sam Burgess didn't even bother to show up in this conversation...
Chill. It's rugby league, not chess
