[QUOTE="Mrs. Peter Quinn, post: 629095, member: 12190"] Burrell doesn't seem to be the sort of player who beats defenders in the way that either a fast, stepping winger might, or in the way that a massive wing like Alessana Tuilagi might. With Manu, I like the idea that we can could seen him come off his wing in the way that North has often been used for Wales, and I also like the idea of seeing him run from deeper. Also, Burrell may some some experience on the wing but he was still found out there for Fickou's try, so it's not like he'd be a guaranteed source of stability. I think Burrell has done incredibly well to adapt to a new position at a whole new level of rugby, and it just seems harsh to move him to a third position so soon after he's found his feet. Tuilagi meanwhile is an experienced player at international level and will have the confidence to give it a go. [/QUOTE]
