yes i do.
we bring him down from Brisbane cause he was suppose to be a great player but he never really showed his worth at the Dragons like he did at the Broncos.
He was even dropped from the Australian Squad.
all these tries that he was to scored he was lucky to get 1 or 2 for the whole season, he went missing all season the only thing i can agree with was his defence other then that he brought nothing to the club.
so i think you better write that list now. :lol:
Hi, I'm Bert Newton, and welcome to another instalment of cheap, lowest-common denominator TV. To begin: an announcement, we've finally received our first ever fan letter! legend_ss werites: "Dear Bert, 20 to 1 is my favourite show in the whole world, however Darius Boyd is the worst player in the whole world. He was even dropped from the Australian Squad! How crap is that!" Now I'm not sure who Darius is, legend_ss, but our writers have no better ideas, in fact no ideas, period, so why not devote a show to the person you've mentioned?

Number 20: Safest fullback in the comp. Cue anonymous channel 9 "celebrity": "Is it true he only fumbled one kick all season?" Cut to second even more anonymous "celeb": "Yeah I remember that dropped kick. It was against the Warriors. I picked up my dole cheque the same day"

Number 19: Positionally outstanding. Cut to Tracey Grimshaw: "Even for a rookie player he always appears to be in the right position, except when he was caught in the cubicle up in Brisbane. Shameful *shakes head*".

Number 18. Try savers. Some dude from the AFL Footy Show "As a AFL person, I don't know much about tackling." Cut to Underbelly cast extra number 31: "The trysaver against Melbourne where he nudged Tomane over the sideline, is slightly better, imo, than the ball-n-all hold up of Michael Luck over in Aucckland"

Number 17. Was his attack so poor? Hi 5 cast: "Some his try assists and line break assists were quite fab! High five! Yeah! Threw plenty of nice ones to B Moz to set up tries, and several to Coops to put him into space."

Cut to commercial. Sham-wow!

Welcome back to 20 to 1, the fan request edition. Our fan has been loving it!

Number 16. Tackle breaks. Peter Overton: "When I'm in bed with my mrs Jessica Rowe, I'm all about submission - but Darius never seems to submit in the tackle!" Dude from the fishing show: "Darius has broken more tackle than I have. I read that he had 134 tackle breaks for the year - among the best in the NRL"

Number 15. Return metres. Gay dude from the Today Show "Darius brings it up hard from the back" Anonymous "comedian": "Yep, more metres per game than any Saints player for the year. More than Morris, Weyman, Sailor, anyone."

Number 14. Line breaks. Fishing show dude: "Darius has broken more line than I have"'

.... ok I need to do some proper work today, that's enough ffs

He wasn't dropped on form, he was dropped to make room for Hayne. Besides he played the whole season at fullback and Tim Sheens clearly went with specialist wingers.

And as I've said before, our whole attack was second rate this season, so it's not fair to say Boyd's sh*t cos he only scored a couple of tries. Tell me how many times Boyd got a good ball on the back of set plays?

Defensively and positionally, he was easily one of the top fullbacks in the competition, and anyone who disagrees clearly didn't watch the games very closely.

At the end of the day, he was brought to the Dragons because a little someone called WAYNE BENNETT has big wraps on him, so if you think you know more about footy than WAYNE BENNETT then I give up.

i love forum frenzy..

surely somewhere some kid has posted this ad..


Hi there, I need to complete my 2009 footy card set. I need Darius Boyd, and am willing to swap a signed Peter Wallace card for it. Please contact my mum, Ivana Henjak to discuss.

how can you call Hayne a specialis Winger when he like Boyd only played wing in SOO but played fullback for their respective clubs at NRL level except when parra were trialling Hayne at number 6.

come godz, I want 13 to 1.
Bert says: Err, welcome back, I can't believe anyone is still watching this tripe. I haven't worked on a worse production since the Wannabes with Nick Giannopolous, and that virtually killed my career...

And number one. Media liaison skills. Cue Marcel Marceau: "I thought a Britney concert was the ultimate study in silence, but Darius is a true artist". Cut to Britney "Oh yeah he's so cool. It inspired me, and inspired a really really cool and sexy forum 7's article. I totally want to nail the writer" *gratuitous open leg shot*

You think Boyd is better than Morris & Hayne.
I do , havent see anything from hayne to suggest he is this great league player.his defense is average , when things dont go well he is amongst the worst in the team.

Morris is still dodgy with his defense,reading of play and handling for my liking, why Boyd should be fullback always over morris

Look at this year Boyd was making a partnership with nightingale on the wing, he tried to do the same thing wiht morris, but it was morris who didnt read boyd hence alot of chances went begging.

Morris when at fullback let a few trys in where Boyd would have stopped them. I am not knocking Morris but i dont think morris position is fullback ,

You cannot be serious?
At this stage yeah. Brett Morris is probably more dynamic and has had a better season at NRL but he hasn't really been tested as much as others in the team and there are still a few mistakes in his game. His game has come along nicely but he has to continue that on. Boyd is much more consistent and not only did he have a strong season in his own right he has played strong at Origin and Test football.

Even if people want to claim Boyd shouldn't have been there in the starting lineup he should've been ahead of Jennings and J.Morris considering he can play centre, wing and fullback and Jennings and J.Morris were really only brought over to play in the centres against France.
