[ His defence is 10/10 but his attack is 3/10. Given the poor performance of our forwards and pivot players the finger gets pointed even more.

Well he was too old for a start. Maybe Burrell is, too.

Then neither can Wigan on current form.

I doubt GW will be "4th best" at Canberra, for the simple reason that I imagine they will move at least one, maybe two of the four on. But don't underestimate the extent to which the NRL can improve players. Of course he wouldn't get in the Raiders first team on his current Wigan form. Tha...
