Just read the following tweet from telegraph journalist and parra fan Christian Nicolussi.

"@mrchrisnico: Luke Burt getting dropped from @TheParraEels this week to Wenty? Certainly not worst last week #whatsdoing?"

Has anyone heard anything about this?

guess we'll know this arvo when Wenty plan, but he was very ordinary last week, worst i've seen him play in a long time.

Unfortunately for him I think it's been a while coming. Too small, not quick enough, and doesn't relish the physical side. I think this is a rebuilding year for Parra and you're better off giving Sio and Blair more experience

Yes definitely a rebuilding year. Give the younger blokes a run.

I haven't been Burt's biggest fans but I'll admit that he's improved over the last 5-6 years.smart player but not physically gifted. Last year wasnt one of his best. If its true that he's been dropped.then I'm all for it as we would get younger quicker stronger players in his spot. In all honesty after lasts weeks game, I would not have dropped him. Lassalo and Horo would have been the first to go before Burt.

Sandow being an 80% kicker put pressure on his gig.

Others dropped? Horo and ?

Agreed Jake, Burt didnt play well but certainly shouldnt be dropped based on last weeks performance. Horo needs to step up or he should go. Lasalo too.
