Message: [QUOTE="NSW stables, post: 3062316, member: 10150"] Boyd has been poor but you cant pretend he has not been a really good fullback in his prime. I do think milf would benefit from consultation with boyd regarding defensive line communication and positioning (boyd did this generally well but his body gave out and couldnt meet the demands). Thing is we do not need milf playing a version of boyd in attack. We need milf to play fullback, like milf wants to play fullback. A way that utilises his skills. I think he would operate well like corey thompson (tigers fullback). Although they didnt win on the weekend, i noticed he is always supporting the ball runners (with his hands up, ready) or hanging around the ruck looking for an offload. He also chimes in at the backline, running more direct. People have made comments about how milf playing at half didnt have enough time before the defence was on him. This is true because our team plays soooo flat and our halves always got the ball off a slow forward (meaning we have slow passes from macca at the ruck and then slow catch and pass from a forward). It is no surprise he had no time to run our create something. I hate how flat our attack is. No one runs onto the ball. I thought Seibs would have changed that because souths played with depth last year but it hasnt. What is doubly frustrating is despite WB going to souths, they still play with depth. [/QUOTE]
