& he's settled into life over here really well unlike our other signing this year

I actually think there is a difference between an organiser, and someone who sets up tries. One will set up the whole play, and get most things going thorugh them, the other will be able to spot the gaps to put people through etc. Some people do both well, others can do one or the other. I have seen burrow do both, but he's more the second than first, McGuire also. Sinfield is closer to being a combination than anyone

Move Burrow to second row too.

Burrow is taking unfair crits here. As G1 has previously stated his contribution to our victory against Hull was 2nd only to McGuire and despite the extra man advantage we would have lost without these 2.

You cannot overstate the difficulty of playing behind a beaten pack which without JP & Biffa is not getting our playmakers on the front foot. If anything Sinfield is a bit below par.

Some of this lack of structure must be down to the coach who has not adapted his game plan to suit his depleted resources.

I'm not sure, we had very similar problems under smith at times. Maybe the main players are more suited to the particular gameplan

For an example of what a half back can do behind a dominant pack look at Matty Smith tonight. Hasn't played with that team for 2 years, been lagnuising with 2 basement teams and looked like the best half back Saints have had since Long's pomp.

Matty Smith is a good player but he's no Burrow and if Burrow were in that structure, behind a pack that dominant there would be no drama. As it is he and Danny have to come up with big off the cuff plays which, luckily for us, they both do better than anyone.
