Awkward looking.

He doesn't have the pace for many other options. He hasn't shown the game nous to select the best option - yet. Not insoluble problems yet, but something that does need attention.

Menzel was the same. On the run he was deadly. However, he never had a set routine for a set shot and it could (and did) look a lot less effective than it could have been.
The first thing we need to do with McKay is get the kicking coach at him, so he has a set routine whenever he has a set kick. It has improved Casboult, who has a lot more issues with his kicking technique than McKay does.

Unusually I quite like him, he is a good size, it just seems he hasn't caught up to the speed of the game yet. Big jump from local league and training.
He seems to get the ball, be in the right position to get the ball but takes a lazy step then decides what to do with it. Needs better awareness of his situation.
Maybe next game his job is to get rid of the ball at his first quickest option. Just sayin...

Only if he is not kicking straight, if he is kicking straight I could't care what he looks like.

Wow, this guy has played 20 games in his career and has been unlucky with injury.....
Let's see how he fares when Murphy, Gibbs, Cripps, Kerridge are taking most of the heat?

That particular trait is not a good one to have - Rarely do any quality players that have this trait starting off.
Cripps first 10 games I thought he looked slow pace wise but was always looked capable with his hands and decision making.
Decision making and execution are the fundamentals that champion teams have an abundance of.
Whiley, Wood, Jones, Dick or Tutt to name a few, cant be around when we have built some depth into this list IMO.

I commented at the time his action looked very similar to Travis Cloke's.

I have reservations about Whiley too. We really need midfielders who can take the heat off Murphy, Gibbs and Cripps rather than relying on them to do the heavy lifting.
