  He was very good even had some good runs out of dummy half. I hope DA bites the bullet and puts morts down to wenty to rebuild his confidence he is really hurting the team at the moment. oh and no way in the world is humble a fullback the coach got that one wrong.

  Shame the halfback did nothing with them....

  This is what I don't understand. DA has seldom been concerned about dropping players to Wenty. When he's done it, in the case of Inu, Grothe and now MK, they've come back the better for it. Which is why I don't get why he has just continued to persist with Dan. It's quite obvious his confidence is just absolutely shot right now.

    From what im hearing the pressure is really starting to get to him too, he apparently fumbled his way through training during the week.

    Maybe the decision has been taken out of DA's hands?! Osborne might be leaning on DA to make sure Mortimer is in the 17 week in week out to help save face... Anderson doesn't strike me as the type of coach who would bow down to orders from above but stranger things have happened in the past....

  MK gives quality dummy half service. He may not have the allround game of a Bedsy or the flair of farrah but he could develop the niggle of Ennis and be a very solid player. Actually at the Dogs he would be a hero. What a shame we have no style of play for young players to gel into

  MK tries hard...but is too slow at dummy half......plain & simple...

    I agree when the fullback has to come in 2 dummy the play is way to slow

    For everyone that keeps saying this, I'd love for someone to go through the replay and mark down on what plays MK is slow. I'm not sure if your referring to his pace or his service, but certainly he is no slower than say an Ennis in terms of pace. This is not a pisstake, I'm interested in what people are seeing because I don't see it myself.
    
    Certainly, I never saw how Jeff Robson gave faster service than MK, and not once during Robson's stint at nine did I hear anyone saying that he was slow.
