I have to disagree with the "Nothing has happened since the start of the summer to suggest that we should change " line that you've been using on this subject.
Burns has shown some worrying technical deficiencies, likely to be further exposed on seaming decks if he is persisted with, whilst...
Another good point.
Some think the best idea is to drop somebody who has hit form, to accommodate somebody with technical flaws that blind freddy could see, which will be easily exposed by better opposition.
You don't drop a guy coming off 180, it's lunacy. Burns has plenty of time to work on his deficiencies and come back a better player. There has been a hell of a lot invested in S.Marsh over the journey, i'd hope the selectors stay the course and hopefully finally reap some dividends.
A balance needs to be struck obviously. Pre-season form will dictate who gets first crack. Personally I won't be prematurely writing Toovey off.

Any defenders ability is a by product of defensive effort provided by our midfield. With the addition of Treloar, a fit Greenwood and continued development of Adams I would hope this improves. Less quality supply will mean less whipping boys in the back 6.
Ease up turbo, our definitions of "outlandish" must differ somewhat.
Simply highlighting he isn't yet ready to lead a side, not many players with 11 tests under their belt would be.
He has poor cattle at his disposal but that doesn't excuse a few very questionable decisions he has made throughout the test, especially not using a referral when you're part of the last recognised batsmen partnership. Who is he saving it for, Jerome Taylor?
The more this match unfolds the more apparent it becomes that Holder is in no way ready/currently capable of leading this side. Talk about a rudderless ship
