I'm certain Boyd has a nice left to right pass he just doesn't use it as often, I've seen him put away his right winger many times, last week was the perfect example. Bennett said he will be making his backs give Aku plenty of ball so surely we'll see Boyd go the right more often from now.

Its more natural passing right to left which makes it easier and more accurate unless of course you are left handed.

Good to have Kade back in town, not entirely convinced of his ability. Are'nt the Tupou boys local?

Right to left he is, shame Aku plays on the right. Truth be told Boyds left to right passing leaves a lot to be desired. It'll be interesting to see if this has improved during the off season.

Truth be told u r wrong cos Guess who threw a brilliant cut out pass to put Aku over. Right in front of me.

Can you read? Idiot. Dragons fans will tell you his left to right passing was ordinary for the most part and for that reason he always played left with Creagh and Cooper.

I did say it would be interesting to see if he had improved, obviously he did. Now quit pretending you've ever seen boyd play you dumb shit.

I remember watching an interview of Tim Smith a few years ago and he said his left to right passing was very ordinary, but after spending 6-12 months working on it, it has now become his preferred side. Surely with the right coaching Boyd will be able to pass left to right just as well as the other side.

The left to right pass he threw last week to cut out two players and then hit Kevin Naiquama right on the chest for a try was a beauty!

First try tonight - Boyd running at a gap at speed and defenders coming from everywhere to close him down - twenty metre pass to unmarked Aku - you know the rest.

you would think it would be a priority for him to get it right over the off season, given that Aku is a right side specialist.

i can't wait to see this all come together.

I don't know why Aku has to be a right side specialist, he has played both eft and right equally well in under 20s, reserve grade and even firsts - just Sau wouldn't give him the ball infirsts.

Which was pretty much my point. When we signed Boyd and all the comments of 'Boyd linking up with Aku = jizz' were been made i think it was i, God King Dean and Johns Magic who pointed out it wouldn't be that simple as he played his entire career on the left and Aku was a right winger.

If he's throwing bullets left to right in the trials it doesn't mean he has always had it in him, i've seen him pass 100 terrible left to right passes for the dragons. It means we've highlighted what we have all been saying, the more quality ball Aku gets the more games we will win, and Boyd has trained and improved his passing to suit.

Boyd can pass either way equally IMO. You are quite sensitive aren't you. You said it is a shame Aku plays on the right. I am saying Boyd has enough skill for that to not be an issue.
