Message: [QUOTE="Thelmus, post: 3148910, member: 8988"] Boyd is doing what he can as a player. It's not great but it is what it is. He is constantly spoken about by younger player about his mentorship. Of course, people will say, and I'd agree with them, that he is barely the standard of an Nrl centre. The thing is, is anyone else from 1 to 7 doing better than him? Our best back is probably staggs right now, but his defence is atrocious. We have a couple of youngsters learning the game on the wing and two halves who were in career low form. Next to all that, the one guy who is only mediocre needs to get dropped? That has been the strategy so far and it has led to a team, for the most part. which could have played in an under 20 Comp a couple of years ago and look it from our score lines. We need to build, and throwing another rookie in to be mauled by their opposition will not help. What we need is consistency. It starts with the club's officials, the message the coach gives his players and the way he picks his team. Has everyone forgotten that Isaako got dropped for getting too involved at fullback in hit ups and support play. Not cautioned or mentored. Dropped. That came from the coach. Tevita is being put on thin ice for reckless play, but when every forward is doing hit ups from a standing start and our defensive line is stagnant is that really the place to start? If we want our team to perform, we need start fixing the problems we have and not look for new ones. Boyd is the least of them. [/QUOTE]
