hmmm a three year contract. Does he intend to retire with Wayne...?
In all seriousness though, now that he is here and is our fullback, we just have to accept it an and embrace the fact that unlike some other clubs, we have a very good fullback in our team. Hopefully he can return to his best form and form a lethal combination with Hunt and Milford.
The thing that worries me though is that Boyd's/Bennett's sweeping attacking style is quite predictable and teams have done a good job on Boyd in recent years to shut it down. It only really worked effectively well during their Dragons premiership days, but since then teams have been able to defend it. Plus Boyd generally executes that play down the left side of the field better than the right. It's a bit like Inglis and South Sydney's attack, which looks a lot more smooth and fluent down the left as opposed to the right.
In saying that, now that Boyd's in the spine, I guess its more balanced. Since Boyd can execute a gameplan and plays a little more structured, it can hopefully allow Milford to play more free and off the cuff - which includes playing all over the field rather than staying stationary on the left edge.
