10 minutes? Where do you get that from? Did you see the game last night?

Good post, went last night. He,s a big lad and my honest first thought was a taller Feka Eatapieaseena As you say,your not gonna get a lot of minutes out of him as he is. Deffo an impact player. Sia soliola was immense, looked fit and up for it, did the full 80...

| I payed close attention to the amount of minutes Mose did yesterday and people are obviously pre judging him. He played around 45 minutes, including a 25 minute period in the first half. That's long minutes for such a big man, when he's fully conditioned after a pre season I have no doubt the minutes won't be an issue for him.

| I would be quite happy if we can get 15 to 20 mins out of him each half, one of those sessions being a game changing one in our favour.

| We dont need big minutes from him, he's an impact player. We have Amor and Lms for big minutes. Walmesley and Masoe for sheer brute force and impact

| For me Mose will be more equivalent to Baloo rather than Barry Ward. If we can get him fitter and he stays injury free then he will take a lot of "weight" of our other forwards.
Whichever way you look at him its an improvement on Josh.

| I think he's more likely to be a Fa'asavalu type player., coming off the bench.

| It is obvious to me that he has been guided to understand how to manage his energy when on the field. So that he can be effective when he is needed.
You dont see him running on the off chance that he may get a pass from a break, his every involvement is pre determined. What this does mean is that oppositions will be able to ignore him on some plays as if he doesnt move you are sure he wont be involved in the play.
He also doesnt fly back into the line preserving his energy - this also means he could be targetted in attack.
If I was in charge of him next year I would look to up his work rate and worry less about the length of time he is on the pitch.
Up his work rate - increase his fitness - better involvement when he is on the pitch - eventually more minutes and at a more intense level.

| I'd play him in the centres. That would sort our problematic backline.

I Also think some of it is him being lazy.
I think he will be a good player for us and a fans favourite.

It doesn't matter how many times you say it, he's a completely different build to fat Feka.
Also, fat Feka ain't so fat anymore.

He's exactly the same style, and Feka was a fans favourite with many at Wigan.
Go to that well known video sharing site and do a search for him and you'll see what I mean.
He made more metres than any other Wigan forward for four consecutive years 2006 - 2009

Mose is a few inches taller and a few kg's lighter than Feka was, he's a completely different build. Feka was a lot more 'padded' shall we say than Mose is.
Mose has had a 6 week lay off before playing and was in better shape throughout this season than he is now, which he will be once again after a full pre season with Saints. He without doubt needs a bit of conditioning but he's nowhere near fatty Feka's league, he plays a lot more minutes.
Just because their style is similar, doesn't mean they're similar players. They've got the same style as Walmsley has, Fa'asavalu had and others, doesn't make them fat like Feka though.

| He will be entertaining that's for sure. If he can get himself in slightly better shape Roby will have a field day on the back of him but I suppose the worry is people like Burrow, Lunt, Higham etc having a field day against him.
I just hope he doesn't see superleague as the easy option for him. He makes Feka look like a midget in comparison to when he first came over but he was one that saw this league as the easy life IMO. A lot if people forget the shape that Feka was in when he first came to Wigan. He was in good shape but he let it all go and got himself in to a state.
If Masoes head and heart is in it he could be a beast. Him and Walmsley form a very formidable pair indeed.

| He is built differently to Feka I think so I'm not sure it is a fair comparison, but I understand why such a comparison would be made.
Masoe seems to be taller and looks in much better shape than Feka was - although that isn't a compliment! Btw have people seen what Feka looks like now? Should be interesting to see how he does at Hull
