Hindyscrack said:Burt is crap....
That is all
varion said:Because even if Hindy makes 5 errors in a game he is still contributing greatly to the team.
Hindy also has 10 times the workrate of Burt (to be expected of course) but the funny thing is usually Burt makes as many mistakes if not more as Hindmarsh with 10x less workrate...is there something wrong here with these statistics or is it just me?
Burt makes these same characteristic errors over and over again. All players have bad games but there are some players who continually have bad games.
Mistakes wouldnt rule you out being in the top 3 players but its the overall influence you have in the match and as it is your opinion that Burt had a good game i am still in the opinion you could of had any 1st grade quality winger and given them Burts opportunies that were handed to him and you would of got a relatively similar result.
We'll end this on agreeing to disagree.

Eelementary said:What's all this about arm-grabbing?
Robinson is an arm-grabber.
Morris, as great a game he had - go to the Eels VS Warrios Pics thread. There's a photo of him clearly tugging at a Warrior's jersey and arm.
Tim Smith is a serial arm-grabber.
Sure, they have to make more tackles than Burt. But it's still not an excuse.
Most players these days do have a tendency to grab arms - there were a number of times were Gasnier and Cooper grabbed their opponents' arms on Friday.
Ok, so Burt does it regularly. So does Eric Grothe. Petersen did it a few times. I noticed Williams had a few goes in his debut too.

Twizzle said:well if Burty plays well and Wade is out, all the bashers can give it to Ash next week
Suitman said:I think you will find that most people will have agreed that he actually had a decent game on the weekend.
And he did - he did some brilliant stuff. I was impressed and very happy that he did.
But it is just too few and far between these performances for most peoples liking.
