[robiecampbellbrown]

Hodge replacement. Basically super star anywhere he plays.

Big call. Would be amazing but big call.

I have been calling him the chosen one since we drafted him. I'm already so far out on a limb there is no coming back hahaha

It's only a matter of time until Brunton Ave around the G is renamed Burton Ave

Burton is a legend in the making. Great pick up. Really keen to know what Clarko's long term plan is for him. Could easily be a Bontempelli type through the midfield/forward, or could live a halfback life of luxury for his entire career.

A future captain, LP?

Where's Cranny Pete when you need him?

Tom Mitchell is future captain material

Waiting for Grand Final week (when Hawks are playing of course).

3rd time in the team of the week, does this mean he could feature in the AA 40 man squad? Would be amazing if so

Not if you ask on the mainboard

Nah, just realism is all. Last year 12 defenders were picked in the squad in total.

Does anyone really think that Burton, as impressive as he has been, has been one of the 12 best defenders in the league?

You're headf*cking yourselves

Which club was it that rotated the captaincy every week like an under 10s team? Maybe we should do that?

 

[Judd2Sewell]

Been better than Jake Lever but no one question you if you bring his name up.

Nah. He's been great through.

I imagine these guys will be all picked before Burton:
- Laird, Docherty, Simpson, Yeo, Roberton, Williams, Howe, Lloyd, Hibberd, Lever, Tuohy
- Rance, Hurley, Talia, McGovern, May

I would love for him to get picked, but I just don't see it happening.

I think Mitch Hallahan was the last "future captain" I can recall being heavily spouted. My take would be... let the kid develop.

 

[grumbleguts]

Make him current captain and give roughy the freedom to concentrate on his own game. ;-)

Defensive AA candidates are stacked this year. Would take a hell of a back end to the year for Ryan to make squad, let alone the team.

I am really happy with how everything has gone. Obviously, they have backed me in. I feel like I have to repay them. I am really keen to stick around," he said.

Which one is you, Bris?

10year deal should do it
