If there is no struggle, there is no progress. Those who profess to favor freedom, and yet depreciate agitation, are men who want crops without plowing up the ground. They want rain without thunder and lightning. They want the ocean without the awful roar of its many waters. This struggle may be a moral one; or it may be a physical one; or it may be both moral and physical; but it must be a struggle.

Interesting idea, I know next to nothing of Burke, but could he fulfill that role?
Other posters have said that so I'd be happy to go with that.
The problem then is coming up with a player that can play full back but has the necessary intelligence to structure the defence and be solid with kicks. I don't see that player within the squad, I no longer think that a full back has to have marvelous last ditch tackling technique. If a player gets a one on one run at you it's very much a penalty in Association Football scenario. If you stop them, great, but eight out of ten they'll score.

Looking in as an outsider I think switching Dixon and Mantellato between the FB and Wing duties could work best for you. Play Mantellato at FB in defence and switch to Dixon in attack and get him to follow play continuously.
Another observation is your Back 3 in the pack look pretty lightweight. Larroyer is a decent size but alongside any two of Donaldson/McCarthy/Burke seems a little small. I think it could be an idea for you to start with Bailey at 13 and have Burke on the bench to bring on after 15/20 and push Bailey back upto prop.

Its no mystery Rovers are endeavouring to fill the gaps in the pack, but I think you have come up with a reasonable alternative at 13, although it makes a hole in the front row rotation (at present) with just three established props in Weyman, Walker and Green, unless Cox moves up to front row? Other options are Esslemont and Burke. |

Think back to 1st Apr 2013 Hull KR 6 - 84 Wigan - Burke played 80 minutes at loose forward according to sky sports, he's more than capable of fulfilling that role.  |

Thanks for that! It took a lot of very expensive counselling to eliminate that memory from my mind!
