No reason Bird couldn't run over the top of those two. As a matter of fact, one could argue Bird is more likely to do that. What he lacks in size compared to Burns he makes up in his ability to step past ******** in order to be one on one with *******.Maybe the club is set on Su'a and Burns. Otherwise why isn't St George in the conversation for any of these forwards.
But Burns is off contract this year and no one seems to be in a hurry to re-sign him.
Someone pointed out Su'a is an excellent defender. That may be so but how is his running game? I have doubts about both.
Then there is Jack Bird. He's good all over the field but I think he'd make a better middle forward. Has footwork and speed but not necessarily tackle busting power on the edges.
We need big, fast backrowers running over the top of Keary and Walker.
