Boyd offers nothing nowadays, he's clocked off already.

Being easily the most capped player in the side, he should be leading these young players with actions a d words.

The guy is mute out there and you can see he doesn't inspire anybody...

.... time for him to be removed.

The footage where Haas is spraying Glenn, Boyd noticeably walks away and says nothing. Great leadership.

So now it really is sounding like no player changes for this team.
Why am I not surprised?
Honestly this bloke really likes to fk with the fans.
There isn’t a single coach (besides WB) who would still trot Boyd or Milford out in their 17.
FFS it’s so frustrating.
Why didn’t we go Madge, he drops blokes like flies for next to no reason. This team would look completely different under him, and I reckon we would have had a few more wins.

Not surprised, Darbs was taking a knee long before BLM became a widespread issue.

To be fair Milf and Boyd wouldn’t be playing completely busted under Wayne. Nor would the rest of the team which exacerbates their current poor form.

Boyd isn't the problem though and has given adequate service this season. Sure he doesn't offer much, opportunities in general are an issue. Our problems are legion and Boyd's contribution is about the ninth thing on the list.

I wholeheartedly disagree. I think his rotten attitude has seeped into the very fabric of the club and is affecting all of the young guys, they've all been watching him for the last 2 years pretend to slip over when there's a difficult tackle incoming, throw his arms in the air and sulk any time the opposition score, genuinely just being an absolute abhorrent teammate. The sooner we cut his stinking ass out and throw it to the curb, the better off we'll be. I have no issue saying that he's the worst 'regular' starting first grade player in the NRL at the moment, and I genuinely don't think it's even a close race. He offers absolutely NOTHING in attack (apart from 2-3 dummy-half runs per half in which he crabs across field for a valiant 7 metres), he often refuses to pass, even when there is a hint of an overlap; when he does pass, it's usually to avoid a collision himself and results in nothing of note. He regularly gets trampled in defence. When he's not getting trampled in defence, he often rushes out of the line and completely ***** our defensive line by leaving Milford in a 2 on 1 situation or forcing Oates to rush up with him (leaving the corner wide open).

Anthony 'The problem' Milford is averaging 77 running metres per game as a Five-Eighth.
Darius 'Not the problem' Boyd is averaging 70 running metres per game as a Centre.

Absolute joke of a player, genuinely counting down the days until he retires, will be one of the best days of my life as a Broncos supporter.

So much this, the thought of it genuinely has me excited and it is what I remember after each pathetic loss. When he is announced as one of the retiring players on grand final day it will be one of the only highlights from this year.

There is no ISC. So if this year is a bust, it is actually hurting us for 2021 not to blood someone in Boyd's position.

If Siebold has any interest in our future, or in the fan's sanity. CUT BOYD.

The dopey **** can barely tie his show laces so this is too much for him to comprehend.

I think Boyd is a convenient scapegoat.

Obviously he is not playing his best footy, not a single Bronco is, but i was going over the stats and there are guys on our team right now who are committing far more handling errors, giving up more penalties, falling off more tackles and running less meters than Boyd.
Coates, Farnworth, Oates, Isaako and Milford just to name a few.

I'd drop 4 out of those 5 before dropping Boyd.
Perspective people, the numbers don't lie.

Coates - 164 metres per game
Farnworth - 85 metres per game
Oates - 100 metres per game
Isaako - 112 metres per game
Milford - 77 metres per game

Boyd - 70 metres per game

You're right, the numbers don't lie.

As I said yesterday, playing silly buggers. I genuinely don't think Seibold has a clue what he's doing until 3:55pm Tuesday afternoon.
