Other games 2025

Robbo like Ivan doesn't trust Spencer when the game is there to be won.

He also still hasn't figured out that Spencer is an impact player you sub on when the opposition's fourteen takes the field.

He destroyed Nikorima/Cook in the 2022 PF and did the same to Grant/Hunt in Origin.

 

[Fangs]

Yet to play with a half decent 7. Burton is a stud

The argument is well over sorry.

He is a great centre who has a good boot. Bring him back to Penrith in 2026 and out him at left centre outside Tailagi.

Dogs can figure out the rest.

Yeah he keeps starting Leinu and Watson. Off the bench they are much better suited.

Leinu is pretty to watch off the back fence but it's a waste. Get him on when you have a bit of momentum already and its gangbusters.

Every game they won last year was off the back of Burton kicking from his half

Burto also kicked the Roosters to death in that 2nd half. He basically forced 3-4 errors deep inside Roosters territory. If that had been any other half kicking it those 3-4 errors basically don't happen or at worst would be 1 or 2.

He has a big boot. That doesn't make you a 6.

He will be an excellent centre for us in future.

 

[Black Panther]

Burton will not be coming back anytime soon, if at all. Surely we have moved on from him.

Same can be said about D.Brown. Burton is more a 5/8 then he is.

 

[The Realist]

The thing about Burto is, if you line him up against Schneider, Talangi, Cole, Laurie - who'd you pick as your 5/8?

Everybody with a functional brain would immediately pick Burto without even thinking about it.

Poor prick is going to be NSW 18th man again

Tailagi no contest.

Laughable

Doesn't hurt.

i really like Talagi, so not sure if a big budget 6 is the move, but can you imagine a Cleary/Burton kicking game? There's not a back 3 in the game that could come close to handling that.

I'm not Burton hater. Love him. But his best football by far has been at centre. And when he plays rep football again it will be centre or utility.

Tailagi doesn't have Burton's boot of course. Put them together and it would be sublime. The guy can find a hole.

Agree. Burton's tip shelf. Blaize is still just potential. If he reached Burton's level that would be amazing

Blazie is showing a bit now. I'm ok with him

Yes. He might become a star.I think he will be good but It's hard to 100%. He may just be average and he still maybe flushed out of the NRL.
Burton is a star and proven.

Tailagi no contest.

Tualagi plays both sides of the field. I am really excited about what he can become.

I was on the Cole train before the year started; still think he will be a good player but I can see why Tailagi has the hype.

Happy Cole got the run that he did. I like him a lot as well.

Blaize is doing some pretty special things for a guy his age and experience. He does push his hand a bit at times but that isn't out of the ordinary at this stage. We need someone firing shots. He isn't going to be paid cheap on his next deal. I'd be pretty keen to extend him before these new franchises come knocking.

When the teams are named next week it will be likely that Blaize is the best player in either spine on the field. He does another Cowboys performance and we will have enough points to win it.
