About time he got his own thread. Very pleased that we appear to have a fullback who's a genuine fullback. His support play is key at the moment in giving us some attacking options. Cheeky first try tonight. And better without the scruffy beard.

Thought his 1st try was more classy than cheeky, and smart play from him and ogre to set up turners try (i know turner still had quite a lot to do obviously). Very pleased with his signing since it was announced and i reckon barring injuries, he will only improve along with the weather

Am I the only one who from watching him at our home games seems to think he is rather lazy?

Must say i wasn't very happy with the signing of Mckinnon at first Due to his age and whats not..

But I'm very impressed with this guy and how he has performed thus far this season great player!

Definitely not lazy but appears to be ambling about at times. It's just his style rather than being lazy though.

I think he organises our backline brilliantly, particularly last week against wakey. He was bossing briscoe and sharp all the time

ive been banging the drum about Wade since i saw him in the bulls pre season game. i said early doors that he'll be a fans fave by the end of the season. incredibly keen to support and commits everything when he runs a line. if our pivots and our good off loading player can use him to his full, then this this guy will score a boat load.....

He's like a ghost. He just floats around and then goes through walls! Know how to break a line near the danger zone!

I don't think he's very good at returning the ball though. And he's prone to some very costly errors at times. Needs to cut these out.

When we signed him I wasn't convinced at all but if he can stay fit we got a special player on our hands , very classy

Remember Kemble? He always looked to be floating around. Not saying Wade is that good but he sure is in the same mould

I wasn't one of his biggest fans when we signed him and still need to be convinced . Good support player though which we need and an eye for the tryline but looks lethargic at times when defending and still making the the mistakes he was last season at Wests.
Can we knock that out of a player at 30 +? . Could go on to be a good signing for us if he cuts the brainfarts out.

I tweeted Steve Mascord when it was announced we had signed McKinnon and he replied saying if Wade stayed fit he could be a sensation in Super League.

Looks to be a real attacking force and hopefully he continues to come up with tries like last night.

Class player. There'll be some defensive faux pas during the season but he is a try scorer and an exciting player with ball in hand - something most fans have been hoping for for a while now. I loved the way he stood Broughton up when scoring against Salford. If he was truly lazy he wouldn't be playing at this level. Silly charge IMO.

Going to be one of those players who either excites or frustrates you every game. Shows what we have been missing since briscoe left us.

Just hope he can stay fit.

Far from lazy. If you watch his work off the ball he covers twice the ground that anyone else does over the course of a game.

He still has bandy legs like Blacklock though

he'll get over 20 tries this season if he stays fit, could be our top scorer this season and will get even better when it warms up

Quality going forward. Dug up this gem from last week;



Although tbf, a lot of Wakey fans jumped on him for it.

Was our best at Salford and probably close to it again tonight.

Not sure about some of the lazy remarks he does come across as a cool guy which I guess could be misread.

Brain fart aside,he was in the top 3 lastweek as well.

Another Nathan Blacklock (not a bad thing mind), exciting and unpredictable in attack, but sometimes leaves you a bit worried in defence!

absoloute quality just lacks the pace he lost with his bad injury but the brains are there and hes on the shoulder of every player making a break. we finaly have some support play great to watch a proper fullback his positional play in defense is second to none hopefully he stays fit or will be a very big miss!!!

Wade will become a REAL fans favourite. For years (since Triester) we've not had a player who celebrates tries like Wade. The sight of him jumping up and running around with his arm in the air after scoring is great to see.

His running off the ball creates space for other players and his enthusiasm seems to be infectious.

People moan about his slow kick returns, but that's just his style. It creates gaps and i'd bet he creates as many clean breaks as any full back in Super League.

He reminds me of Matt Le Tissier....a true maverick!

But still very comfortable under the high ball, we have not had a fullback who can take the high ball consistently for a hell of a long time.It's players like McKinnon that i want to come and watch..A very exciting player that will get even better this season.

He's a class act.
