From memory he spent his juniors in the halves but was converted to a hooker when the under 20's kicked off

He spent some time in the halves with Hunt growing up.
He also played halfback for the Broncos first grade squad against Panthers in 2008 and 5/8 against Sharks in 2009. He didn't do that well in those games.

Not a bad plan, but Boyd in the presser was talking up how good he felt after that game, so I doubt he will be going anywhere, unless he gets further injured from here.
Will be a definite option around Origin time, though Bird may very well be in NSW camp then, so Oppa would probably be a centre and Pearson probably would be on a wing.

Come origin Kahu will be Back also, will add the the useful rotation for wing spot in this period.
Boyd says that, his running on field says otherwise. Groin injury and possibly hammy

Anyone got any thoughts on this team?
Bird will give us some added running & effort from Fullback, Boyd & Kahu on the wings will provide safety under the high balls and good finishing ability, Isaako & Roberts in the centres as our X-Factors with big bodies. Oates starting on the left edge to combine with Milford & Bird. Glenn as the utility on the bench as cover for any back line or edge injury.
Contingent on Boyd being willing to play wing of course, but we've already seen Inglis move from his preferred Fullback position this year, maybe Darius will do the same for us.

That's a squad.

He really doesnt. We may find him starting as bench utility for the first few weeks he is fit as we dont really need to rush him back. I'm still pretty sure he will end up as lock, from what i gather thats why we targeted him in the first place. The only logical reason to put him in at center early on is to get him match fit.
Don’t mind Bird at back but from photos might need a month nonstop on the treadmill to be fit for it.

The forwards that we've released over the last couple of years are playing alright at the moment..
