Message: [QUOTE="Brotherdu, post: 2805325, member: 9226"] So, riddle me this. Does Boyd have any sort of kicking game? When I started following the Broncos, Lockyer had already switched to 5/8 so I'm not sure what type of Fullback he was. Boyd seems to have the play making abilities with good vision and is great at setting up his outside men unlike some fullbacks. I also realise that we are in need of a halfback and not a 5/8, so comparing this with the Lockyer switch is not exactly the same thing. My knowledge of the game is not in depth enough to appreciate the finer details of the difference between halfback and 5/8 apart from the obvious 1st/2nd receiver and halfback generally being the organiser. So is it too much of a stretch to imagine Boyd making the switch to Halfback, assuming Milford stays at 5/8, or does he not have the requisite skillset (kicking?)? He seems to have lost a yard of pace so getting some young blood in at fullback at some stage down the line may not be a bad idea. I realise that Boyd is the current QLD and AUS fullback, so it is probably premature to think of switching him. I'm just interested in what you guys think about the potential for some sort of out of the box switch like this? Apologies if someone has brought this up already, I haven't read all 24 pages beforehand. [/QUOTE]
