Hopefully he lives up to the hype. From what I've seen of him he looks very promising.

The last "next Allan Langer" ended up dropping the ball in the GF.
 
He is good. I saw him in the SoO in Melb this year, he looked dangerous every time he had ball in hand. I have no doubt he will make the step up. Not sure if he has a kicking game to speak of but he can develop that I guess.

In that video I posted he showed quite a knack for short kicking and I believe a 40/20. Whether or not they were the right options in the context of the games or if he made 20 terrible kicks in those games, I can’t say.

You're right he looked pretty good in that highlights vid but doing in at NRL level with less time and knowing he will be hit taking it to the line etc will be another test. I don't normally get too excited about the coming season until nearly rnd 1 but I just want 2019 to start already.
 
Awesome highlights hey, basically the Boyd & Fifita show, and we all know how good Fifita is
 
**** me this boy looks the goods. Uncannily like DCE if you ask me. He could be the one we've been waiting for I dare say. Any chance of first grade this year I wonder? Looks very 'game mature' for his age.

Would they have added him to the 30 man squad if he wasn’t a chance at first grade?
 
I'm hoping we somehow manage Boyd 6, Dearden 7 and Paix 9. If we want to keep this pack its going to take some coin, might mean shifting some some guys if they don't perform and keeping the young guns who demand half.
 
Second article Badel has done regarding our young halves
First was Paix who was likened to Cronk
Now boyd the next Alfie
Tomorrow dearden will be the next (insert a legendary half’s name here). I used to get excited about the halves getting talked up but with the tiny percentage of the ones talked up that even make a first grade appearance its hard to get excited anymore
 
another great seibold signing...... jokes, jokes
 
Can we stop with the next so and so comparisons in the halves(or in general for that matter), how many have paid off at the club since 1998 long term at the club? Just let him develop and make a name for himself.

****, I'll bet Tanah just loves being called baby, about as much as Alfie loved being picked up by his team mates and treated like a cuddly toy. Young might be a better word.
