Toast Congratulations Ryan Burton 100 games

[Ford Fairlane]

 

[Power Raid]

100 already?

well done burton!

 

[RussellEbertHandball]

Need a thread title change. 47 games for Hawks 52 so far for Ports.

First game was in 2019 for Port.

That first line in the story is misleading.

 

[Mundusa]

Might want to change the title. It's not 100 games for port

Sorry, REH beat me by 3 minutes

 

[Ford Fairlane]

Years feel like they go by so fast I just took it on face value

 

[ROBBBO]

Speaks well.
Captain material

 

[El_Scorcho]

Such a reliable, versatile gun. Love having him here. Look forward to what he can do for a decent coach.

From memory didn't want to come back from Hawthorn .

Looking better and better now that he has confidence in his body. I really rate him and what he can do was on show in his 100th.
Still think he should be playing on a wing or even tried up forward.

Congrats on 100. May there be many, many more and all in Port colors.

He didn’t - we were apparently unimpressed with his attitude a bit in that he had a fair few tickets on himself. We had obviously thought highly of him given we’d given him number 5.

 

[Sinnthesis]

His performance has really improved since overcoming those niggling injuries.
He would be in the top couple in our B&F atm

I like that a guy is loyal to a club and his team mates

 

[Lefti93]

what a game.

i wonder if clarko will keep him or trade him back to hawks for chad.

And you swapped him for the king of poor attitude with so many tickets on himself he'd sell out a stadium.

Seems a bit of an odd one.

Could it be that neither Burton or Wingard have 'tickets on themselves' or 'bad attitudes' and that 90% of the time rumours like that are spread by the clubs themselves to make fans feel better about trading out popular players?

The stories about Chad's attitude towards training and football were coming from the assistant coaches if my memory isnt mistaken

 

[TeeKray]

I have always liked Burton further up the ground. I'm not convinced he's a great one on one defender but his kicking is an absolute weapon and he normally makes good decisions. He is slowly becoming the player we wanted him to be.

 

[DrEvil_]

Well done Ryan, always had a soft spot for the kid and wish we didn't trade him. Best of luck.

 

[Ford Fairlane]

Congratulations Ryan on 100 games for Port Adelaide and your name on a locker.

And what a win to bring it up in, v Geelong at Geelong.

And a fair contribution with 23 disposals and 465m gained.

 

[Tibbs]

I thought he had a really good game ... Very different to his last few efforts. If he keeps that up, he keeps his spot.

 

[EskimoPAFC]

Congrats.

Needs to get back to where he was a couple years ago. Has all the attributes to be a top 5 player long term (and used to be exactly that).
