im sure im not the only one who has him on here

hes on had 6 touches halfway through the 2nd term and im done with him i gave him one more chance after last week now he is done. clarkson moving him forwatd has REALLY effected him

thoughts?

I have him also bud.
I thought having a full pre season...his form late last season...the other guns he has around him would make it difficult for opposition coaches for a lockdown on him.
Ive heard he has a degenerative knee.
Ill keep him...maybe when it matters most (in finals) he will step up...we arent 1/2 way through the season yet...its not how you start....but how you finish...perhaps he has a free ticket from the coach to just cruise along at the moment
Doesnt help us though
I swapped him last minute with Griffen before round 1....booooo

I think there was enough reason to trade Burgoyne last week. The team role his playing is really sacrificing his scores, and I don't expect it to change.

Yeah...must be getting told to never kick the ball...handballs only.....just stay out there and try not to get noticed?
Maybe he will do a 5 minute special like heavy moring Dew did in the 08 GF...and that will be it for the whole season.
I will keep him and blame him for my losses.
Easy Peasy

As a Hawks man i think he is a carrying a niggle, he hasnt been copping the tag and with the likes of Mitchell, Hodge and smaller mids i.e Lewis, Savage, Shiels playing well they are taking points off him

Plus what i have noticed with Clarko is rotating his team through the mids in 2011 with the sub rule.... you will notice they are playing 3-4 weeks in the mids then a balanced game time either mids/fwd and fwd/def depending on the player...
