This left-sided Northampton player can play as a wing back or in a wide-midfield role. When fit he appeared regularly for the Sixfields club in 2000-01 but he had some injury problems which necessitated a cartilage operation in February 2001. Duncan delivers a useful cross from the wing and links well with John Frain down the left flank for the Cobblers.
