What I have found interesting doing this profile is the fact that Boyd still managed to be in the top 5 for Bulldogs for Total Disposals despite only playing 13 games this year.This was the first season I didn`t have Boyd in my DT at all.And I doubt he`ll be in next season as well.There are a lot of cheaper options imo but for those wanting a unique(As I think he will be next season) he could be a nice option with a full injury free preseason.

Nice work LF, but I think Boyd's fantasy days are nearly gone. I can't trust his body and Griffen is now ahead of him.

I won't be selecting him this year I don't think, can see him taking on some more tagging roles now that he's handed over the captaincy :-\
