A fit and firing Shannon Boyd , yeah okay.was playing for Australia a few years ago.at his best he's great but was overwieght and lazy for the Titans.Slightly better than Alvaro. Paulo and Boyd was a good rotation in 17 and 18 for Canberra.

Alvaro should be known as the sloth. Runs like a mazda 2 on two cylinders
A ouple of years ago he had a great season but the Titans paid well over for him for that one good season. We also have alot of good props now
No couldn't even make the Tits run on side.
