since his return to wests he has been in woeful form. i've watched his last 2 games and he's missed kicks through leading to 3 tries for the opposition, and was so bad in one game he was shifted onto the wing, where he made yet another error leading to a try. hope this is not a sign of things to come and he's just suffering from the general malaise the whole tigers team (ellis excepted) seem to be going through at the moment. something going badly wrong at the tigers at the moment

anyone else worried?

Nope the guy is class, all players suffer dips in form as do teams... he is a class act and we are extremely lucky to have secured his services

PS seen some outstanding VT on Heremia recently too, his kicking game is outstanding

Definitely worried, think he is a waste of a quota spot. But we will just have to wait and see.

I'd go along with those sentiments having watched his last two performances - I see he's been dropped this week for Tim Moltzen who caused a ripple last week by signing for St George. You have to give the bloke the benefit of the doubt because he isn't even here yet but he's not shown anything that makes him look like a quality signing.

Cameron Phelps returns the ball a lot stronger than McKinnon and I don't think there's a massive difference in quality between the two of them. Maybe McKinnon has taken his eye off the ball because he knows he's coming here for the next three years but even that's a bad sign. I really hope he turns out to be a good acquisition and obviously Richard Agar has seen something in him that isn't that visible to the naked eye when you're watching Premier Sports!

As for the assertion that he's a 'class act' I think we have to reserve judgement on that Mr Icecreamman.

clearly you have never seen him play

Ah we talking about "in the past" , sadly we play the game in the present.

Maybe if we're talking about 'the past' he should have signed for Rovers

two games in which the wholoe team under performed make him a bad player mmmmmmmm!
leave it with you mate

Time will tell - I'm just not over enamoured with what I've seen so far from one of our big signings for 2012.

The guy is a really good signing and him been out of form isn't a worry at all. Every player has ups and downs as do teams. I think he will be awesome for us next season if he stays fit, and will add another diemension to our attacking play.

McKinnon and Heremia have both been pretty average to put it politely this season however this may be the standard of over seas players we are going to see in the coming years.

There could also be an element of him already knowing he is moving on, it's a bit harsh to criticise him when he's not even pulled an FC shirt on, judge him from game 6 next season I say.

Clearly , You haven't seen his last couple of games.

If we play the game in the present then why was you so worried earlier in the thread.

As for McKinnon - I ain't worried at all, he's not the worst that's played for Wests over the last few weeks.
