Burton already wants out of the Bulldogs and people want to sign him?

That reeks of someone with a shit attitude. Doesn’t want to put in the hard work at a club that’s in a rebuild.

Yup, he knew what he was signing up for now wants out cos it's hard. Hard pass, despite how good he is.

Well the dogs have signed a bunch of knobs recently, to put it nicely. Maybe it’s just a terrible place to go to work everyday for a young guy and he’s feeling it.
 
I'd take Burton for 600k. He has the potential to be a great halfback in the future.

He maybe didn`t like Gus`s critique of the Bulldogs during the week and or , how Gus took over the training / coaching from Trent ?

Based on what? In all the games I’ve watched, he’s never shown anything to suggest he will be any good at halfback.

All of the skills he has shown, they are suited for 5/8.

I just don’t think he is at the stage in his career where he can lead a rebuild. It would be tough on the kid cause last year he won a premiership, centre of the year and origin conversation after signing with the dogs. All of a sudden he is underpaid, incorrectly utilised and is the star player during a phase in his career where he needs to be learning off someone instead of winging it in a losing side with a dog shit spine and nsw cup quality halfbacks. I don’t think the contract talk is true but is any of that really ideal.
 
Herbie Hogsworth, straining credibility a bit here:

“I am happy with the Broncos and I love everyone here, but I have to weigh up my options. Obviously I love the Broncos, I have been here since I was 15 years old, but I have to do the best thing for myself."​
“It’s nice to know for sure that clubs are interested. I’ve only heard it through the media that clubs are chasing me, but I’ll be sitting down with my management team and my uncle Brian and come up with the best option for me."​
“I haven’t been talking to any clubs myself. I have been letting my agents talk to the clubs and then I will meet with them in the next couple of weeks and sit down and go through all the options. We haven’t put a deadline on things, but in the next few weeks we will talk to all the clubs and then come up with a plan of attack.​

Didn’t the club put a deadline on HIM?

At least he knows how to pass the pill to his manager.

Seems to be a lot of bullshit flying in all directions. He must have the world's worst management if he's relying on the media to tell him other clubs are interested. If you've ever had an agent, you'll know as soon as they have the slightest whiff of interest, you're their next phone call. That's how they make their money.

It's just a hunch really. I don't think he's agile enough to be a 5/8 but I like his kicking and passing.

I think there's a chance he will play there at some stage this year.

Too many buts for my liking. He wants the big money so he's gone.

I think the words he's chosen to give in the interview are fine. I don't know how true they are, but it's in his best interest to try to get as much money as he can. This might be the biggest pay packet of his life.
 
Maybe he’s trying to pump up his price by scoring individual tries…..

It didn't go down like that at all. Media beat up. Hes simply not happy there and doesnt see it turning around. Option is in his favour after next year.
