Message: [QUOTE="Kooly87, post: 3096520, member: 9326"] Yeah I take your first point, particularly with feedback from his team mates, but I would say that in any leadership position, you can't expect all of your colleagues to be honest with you, especially not if they are young themselves and probably looking to not rock the boat. As a leader you need to be realistic about the worth of feedback like that. Ideally he'd have one or two senior people close to him that he could turn to at a time like this to get a real sense of how he's impacting the team, but I think with all our turnover of senior players on top of the fact he's already a fairly private person, it's possible this relationship just doesn't exist for Darius in the current squad. I also agree that it's probably really hard for him to let go of doing something he loves and has done for all his life. That's reality though and time waits for no one. For a leader especially, it's critically important to be honest with yourself and accept that the time is right. He's shown plenty of courage to keep fighting for his spot at this point. Perhaps if this fear is driving him then he needs to divert some of that courage now to making peace with the fact that his time as an NRL player is probably done and use that same courage to also steel him for what comes next. Nothing can change the history books for Boyd as an NRL player. His successful career largely speaks for itself. It's up to him now though as to how he's remembered as Boyd the Captain of the Broncos. How he handles this next step will have a huge say in that. [/QUOTE]
