Toast Thanks for everything, Ryan Burton

[Jiggystoon]

Far from convinced that this has been a good move, time will tell of course but this kid has oodles of talent disappointed to see him go

If he hasn't already, Ryan will soon discover the truth about how he was lied to by his manager, his new clubs recruiter, assistant coach and potentially senior coaching staff.

Ryan and his girlfriend couldn't get out of SA quick enough the first time. They were both happy and settled in Melbourne. His dad told him to stay with Hawthorn.

Ryan listened to the wrong people, who within HOURS have proven to be untrustworthy.

He made a horrible mistake and trusted the wrong people. His career now depends on these people.

Good luck Ryan...you might need it.

We saw Cripps lie to media straight up. But even more disappointing to learn that his manager and others at PA have been peddling untruths to him.

I don’t blame Ryan - which 21 year old always knows the right voices to listen to? I got plenty of things wrong at that age, and plenty more thereafter.

I really hope he does well and finds his way through it all.

Loads of upside for burton. He did well without being brilliant. Could be anything.

I noticed his attitude with people wasn’t the best. Some post game interviews etc were not inspiring. However he is young.

Good luck to him.

Have been O/S so haven't been able to comment.Very disappointed to lose Burto and think we paid overs for Wingard.

 

[Davo23]

So, the last two players wearing #5 have been traded out prematurely.

Is this a jinx number now?

 

[cryptor]

After seeing closely the way Port handled things during the trade period, I wouldn't be surprised if Burton does a Croad in a couple years.

Gee...... what country were you in that didn't have internet?

 

[libbylou]

China. Internet and wifi not too good.
No Facebook or google.

That is my fervent hope

Probably ready to head over to SA now the Spring Carnival is over

China's filtering is easy to get around. Vpn or remote into a computer into another country (say at home in Australia) or different dns servers (1.1.1.1 or 8.8.8.8)work.

Also if you have a Vodafone mobile you can roam in China for $5 a day and there is no filtering.

 

[libbylou]

Thanks kazooka too late I am home now.
Plus I have no idea what you are talking about.
Vpn (1.1.1.1.or 8.8.8.8.). I am sure I could do it if I understood it.
Thanks though.

Some of the VPNs haven't been working lately - China Govt. doing there best to block them.
Having said that AFL.com.au and Bigfooty.com have never been blocked.

Yes no twitter or facebook or Instagram

Good luck to the lad. He had a ripping 2017 and took a bit to get going this year.

I reckon he’ll have a very good career at Port streaming off of the back flank, but I do not follow the thinking that he will play as a key forward or midfielder as he has a tendency to “feel the heat” a little too often, and I assume the club feel similarly or else they’d have batted away any requests from Port to discuss him.

"Port was on the other end and it was always a club that was in the back of my mind to go to maybe, down the track"

There it is

 

[Beandip]

Imagine if Clarkson and Wright, who play this game strategically and for the long haul... drafted him knowing they could turn him into the chip to get Wingard after a couple of years

 

[Agent Smith]

There it is

To me it seems like he's trying to get onto facebook first to say 'no, no, I dumped you.'

A lot of his quotes there strike me as Ryan trying to convince himself of those things as opposed to actually feeling them.

I'm sure he'll feel better about it all and be comfortable at Port in time, but at the moment I'm not convinced by the whole "yeah, I'm actually really happy now" thing.

 

[Samurai Hawk]

Once you get put up on the trading block, you don't really feel comfortable going back unless you're 100 per cent wanted," he said

"Port was on the other end and it was always a club that was in the back of my mind to go to maybe, down the track.

[Collins-Langford-Ayres]

Any chance we managed his knee this year and were concerned he would not come on, so sold on the way up?

His 2018 was not great and showed some gaps.

Did his girlfriend come over or was that seen as an issue going forward by the club?

Commercial vpn yes, but you can just vpn to your home internet connection.

 

[Leather Poisoning]

Good luck to Burton - really hope it all goes well for him aside from general team success.

Doesn't really sound too pumped does he? (I'm only reading the quotes, didn't watch teh video)
But where's the:
"Can't wait to play with these guys, always wanted to return home at some point and this was just a perfect opportunity"
"I've always looked up to Ken Hinkley as a great footy mind"
"Boak, Charlie Dixon, Wines and these guys - being on the same team as them will be awesome"
"Yep - was s**t to get put on the block, but this is a good change for me, at a good time."

 

[Adelaide Hawk]

I just hope we don't regret letting him go too much.

 

[MrPremiership]

He's a Port player now, so just saying what he needs to say.

Port put his name up for trade, not Hawks, so he can't be that shattered. He could have stayed.

You can sense the hurt in his words.
