it will be interesting to see how McNaughton or Taylor cope with him. I expect Burke to attack Taylor as McNaughton has the pace to nullify Burke.

Interesting article on Chris Burke on Sky Sports today regarding the reasons why he decided to move on from Cardiff. Besides all the normal stuff about sometimes you just know it's time for a change and that he felt if Cardiff failed again there would be wholesale changes etc. He also said it was nice to be playing the full 90 minutes on a regular basis this season and not being subbed after 70 minutes week in week out.

Now Chris that wouldn't be a dig at DJ would it. ;)

Whatever Chris will get a good recption fro me whenever he returns to Cardiff :ayatollah: :ayatollah: :ayatollah: :ayatollah: :ayatollah: :ayatollah: :ayatollah:

Well if burke decides to cut inside then he has to face BIG Ben Turner, only one winner in that one I think :ayatollah:

Just need to blow on him, he will fall over then!!
I'll clap him before and after the game but during 90 mins he will treated as any player and I'll shout abuse at him!!

He has been banging them in fair play!!

But I think Taylor is strong and quick. If he offers Burkey the line, Chris
dont really have the pace to do him. If he offers him the inside channel
Ben Turner will kick him out the ground.

thats my theory :? :lol: :lol: :ayatollah:

burke has been amazing this season!! if i could change just one thing about this current cardiff team, it would be burkey in for conway. he would really fit in well with the way we play this season!!

Totally agree. Burke would be great in our present team. I like Conway, he works his socks off. but he NEVER beats
his man then crosses.
He cuts in, he plays back, but never beats his man . Lack of pace.

True, he never beat his man but why does he need to? The quality of the cross is the most important and conways is exceptional.

Burkeys been being played as a left winger so he will come up against the mighty super Kev who will surely just chop him down :lol:

been playing right wing,playing well

Re: Chris Burke

Thu Dec 01, 2011 8:14 am

im not worried by burkey...

think both our full backs will be able to cope with him no probs...

just as taffy said,

if he comes inside hes hitting a brick wall, if he goes outside kev or taylor have the pace to stop him....

all we need to do is a few hard tackles to roughen him up he will drift out of the game then. i liked burkey when he was here but his weakness is he gets hurt easy :ayatollah:

I'd just keep showing him into his shoddy left foot! Good thing is the boys will know his weaknesses..... ;)

Give me Burkey over Conway any day of the week.

Conway has less tricks than Paul Daniels.

As long as you show burkey the line we will be fine, he cant cross for shit, saying that let him cut in on his left cos he cant shoot for shit either
