Comparing Richards with Burt? The simple fact is that he took a paycut because there would have been minimal market interest in him.
No I wasn't comparing them at all. Not sure how you come to that conclusion from what I wrote...
Simply saying Pat Richards has gone to England and getting WAY more than he is worth. Whats to say Burt couldn't have done the same. Got nothing to do with comparing them.
How can you be sure there would have been minimal market interest in him? Theres a number of clubs that would buy a go who has been a regular first grader in the backline and can kick goals.
The guy took a pay cut without waiting to see what was on offer, so that says he was happy to stay at Parra and not go elsewhere. Rather see that than a guy saying "I'll wait and see whats on offer".
