Burns always kills it in reserve grade. He scores like a winger playing second row. You could look at him scoring plenty of tries for forward, playing well and say he's improved but he was doing this stuff in 2019.


I’d be looking for him to cut down on his mistake rate, not if he’s scoring tries or not.

The exact roster I said to a man. Everyone trying to get clever by putting kikau on the bench.

Naden at fullback in cup is a little bit interesting. If he has a good month there he could find himself our back up fb for the nrl side.

The flegg side we have named is a strong one. Turuva, Jenkins and Bain have all been training with fg.

Not much to say about the nrl side, it’s completely as expected.

The problem is he needs to get better at centre. Playing FB doesn't do that

If HTF lines up at centre I would be running all day at him. His defence in the centres in the recent trial was abysmal.

On the other hand he's leaving next year so if his development as a half stalls it's no loss either.

I hope we have him swap to centre with Salmon throughout games to increase his ability to do the same in NRL should we need him to.

He doesn't have the ball playing skills for NRL fullback IMO. He barely got by as a centre with his ball playing skills.

I think wing plays to his strengths and removes his weaknesses better than any position would.. Mainly reducing his need for defence and passing. Fullbacks often get thrown on the wing so perhaps this is to help his wing development by throwing him into a position that will get his workrate up while still being able to focus on skills that wingers rely on. Will have him tested under the bomb. Force him to run more metres etc.
