I think it's a matter of balance.
Last year he did long minutes when we lost props, but then people berated him for not being the impact player they wanted. If he is an impact player then the long minutes will not suit against strong opposition.

This is correct, he has done long minutes in a couple of matches, funningly enough his first long match was against our opponents Widnes next week, we were down 3 props and Mose and Sav had to take on the Widnes pack, Mose was our best player that match.
I don,t think there are enough set plays and opportunities to get Mose running in hard at 1 or 2 defenders a lot of the time there is 3 or 4 defenders up on him quickly because they can,t give him momentum.
Walmsley and LMS seem to receive the ball from a deeper position, whilst Richards and Amor receive the ball in heavy traffic and have to do the hard yards.
This season our pack is a very tight unit working for each other in different ways, this balance is giving us control in the middle for most of the match, maybe KC has learnt something from DA over the years!
