The talent of Western Bulldogs forward Tom Boyd was on display in the VFL on Saturday when he kicked five goals in the second half against Coburg at Whitten Oval.

The 22-year-old came into the game after half-time as the rain and wind eased and made it conditions more favourable.

He sparked the Bulldogs into action in the third quarter when he kicked three goals in seven minutes before kicking another two in the final term, with one being the result of a 50-metre penalty and the final major a brilliant set shot from the boundary.

At times the Bulldogs were forced to use Boyd as an inside midfielder at stoppages as they had Tom Campbell, Jordan Roughead and Josh Schache all in the one team.
