As much as it hurts me to agree with Suity, I don't like the way Burty holds the ball out in front of him with two hands.
As we saw last week, some one just has to grab one of his arms and he drops the ball.
Burt is awful and was awful last week. In fact, I'd go as far to say that everyone contributed something to the win except him.
Apart from his s#^t dummy-half runs. He threw a terrible ball to Tahu on our line, dropped a few balls and at one stage, rushed up so far out of the line in defence that he was about 10 metres behind the Manly player when he (the Manly player) caught the ball. Luckily, someone else covered for him. Chris Walker would've cringed.
Burt is the only weak link in our side and his goal kicking isn't reliable enough for him to hold his position. He's been one of the luckiest players in the comp over the last few years. Even against the Cowboys, he did nothing apart from scoring a try that even I would've scored. Peterson was completely awesome, yet didn't make it the next week (was he injured?). Peterson isn't perfect, but at least he's a good finisher and a great dummy-half runner when coming out of our own end. Peterson always puts in all game, where-as Burt just hangs around and occasionally pops up to stroll 20 metres and finish off someone else's good work.
