agreed he's 1 of the best 4 man in the nbl and has never played center, so he's out of position. gleeson need to play burston more and let cam go back to his natural position

Also long as he can catch the ball on the block face up like tim duncan and shoot and score he will be happy,but lets be honest he plays better from the right side of the court.

He is a great player who does not look comfortable in the current Tiger line up. Perhaps if Burston can stay healthy and play more minutes?

I agree Burston should be playing more and that would free up Trigger. Is he injured at the moment? Watching the game vs Wollongong I thought he did a good job at both ends but hardly played. But with Burston on, I think Tragardh would still be the main post threat. He just wouldn't have to worry about guarding a 5 man and being the only Tigers player in the paint to get rebounds.

No post moves? From the game I saw last night he was the only one making post moves towards the basket. That seems like an unfair statement to me.

He doesn't have the amount of moves the Cam has, but he is a great defender and rebounder. Let Tragardh do the bulk of scoring. He, touch wood, hasn't been injured this season yet, so that can't be an excuse. Until he gets injured...play him!!!

correction, he has came out of an injury already this season!

It is evidently clear that we wont see the best of the Tigers until Gleeson sees the light and plays his 2 big men together, and in there natural positions! Yes, Burston did miss some of preseason with an injury, but has proved the last few weeks how effective he can be in the limited minutes he's been getting. It;s not rocket science!!!! Most teams out there would love to have a big man with his skills on there team. Gleeson does, but at this stage fails to recognise it!

Burstons knees are made out of papiermache and he can't handle more minutes

Burston just being eased into the season after his injury I think. He'll be starting for Greer by the end of the year. He's playing well in his 15mpg as it is.

Wouldn't say Trigger has been struggling at the 5 though. It's not his best spot but he's having a better season than his last.

16p at 52%, 5r and his team is 3-1, it cant be all bad with Trigger at the centre spot. Having said that, the Tigers wont reach their potential until they have Burston up and firing so they can have a lot of different looks in the frontcourt, including the two bigs together.

Trig may be getting 16pts but how many points is he giving up by having to guard genuine centers from other teams. I think if Matt Burston was to get more time Trigs average would increase because he's not being defended by bigger players.

How many points would Trigger give up guarding PFs like Redhage, Catron, Worthington, Mims etc? He is a bad defender, it doesnt matter what position he is playing.

Truth is he is a 4/5, it's about picking the right moment to play him in each spot and utilising him well.

Gleeson ran the shuffle in Townsville and it was the reason they were always one of the worst offensive teams.

He kept Rolan Roberts on the three point line for a season and then wondered why he wasnt producing...

I thought Gleeson mostly ran the flex in Townsville, but it had the same effect of getting everyone to the perimeter at some point.
