If only you could put Foster into Mc Meekens body.

Thought McMeekan & Moors played really well today, not sure what people are questioning about McMeekan's performance today, missed one tackle but ran onto the ball well on good lines.

Missed quit a few tackles and grabs roo much for me. I thought his performance was 'average' which is an improvement. Just needs to get involved more cos when he does he's dangerous. It's OK running lines but sometimes needs to do the hard yards!but signs of improvement, same with moors

I don't know if it was the half-time talk or getting a lift in his own confidence from the improved performance from his team mates but Meeks' whole game changed half way through. Like the team he now has something to build on for the rest of the season.

No point gaining all that weight and presumably muscle if it slows you down. Very disappointing so far this season.

He was in an offside position because he had just been involved in the previous tackle. I know Ellis is not a favourite but dont bag him because others did not fill in for him.

No they wouldn't. He is lazy and since sihning the contract renewal last year he has been nowhere near his best. Anyone convincrd otherwise?
Not sure how much is attitude or fitness but something is holding him back. Second half was definitely moving in the right direction but still a way to go imo.

If Powell thinks the same as most posters on this subject, he won't be playing Thursday.

Totally agree with these comments, think we've now confirmed who this seasons scapegoat is going to be!!

Every young and upcoming player goes through peaks and troughs. The learning curve is unpredictable. I class Meeks as a young player.

I was going to mention it. He settled well after that.
