"Burt La/The Wearne" - Full Back/Back Pocket
The 'Wearner' has become one of the competition's premier defenders and was a member of the 2012 leadership group. Previously a winger, Wearner was forced back with mid-season injuries in 2010 which turned out to be a revelation blanketing the best forwards in the competition and known for his sensational directional talk from behind the play. Wearne won the 2010 Coach's Award and is a triple(2011, 2012 and 2013) Premiership Player. The woeful kick for goal astonishingly has snuck forward in 2013 and bagged goals in consecutive games for their first time in his 70+ game career. You can be sure for a bloke of tender years has some very impressive stats. Wearner is also well known around the inner sanctum of the club sponsor jumper The Steyne pelicaning his way around on Saturday nights and if you see an entire tray of beers dropped Wearner generally is your guy.
