I am sure I will get shot down for this but... Whilst you can find little fault with him last night, how many times do we have threads like this for Kirk ? Rarely. Whiting this season has been spoken about loads and yet Kirk goes under the radar. Why is this ? For mine its because he can't be ar54d most of the time. With Turner and Tommy (who will be a centre imo) improving with every game I see tough times ahead for Kirk unless he starts putting in passionate performances like that week in week out, not just against Rovers.
That said credit where credit is due for last night but I personally would like to see that more often. Cookie has gone he needs to stop falling behind the no service excuse and start looking for service and going the extra mile.
Can't fault his passion that is for sure. Fantastic comedy moment with Newton. Just wish he would push up and support more - Tick's break a prime example of where he wasn't but should have been.
If he plays with that passion and intensity/concentration for the next 5 games then we'll forgive him his occasional defensive misses and start to see him as a decent centre. Just hope it's not a one (KR) game wonder. He was very good last night and totally focussed.
