as a leeds fan i watched tonights game and i dont know if its me but everytime i see fielden play he always knocks on,as u lot watch him week in week out what are your views on this and does he do it most games..

as a Wigan fan, i watched tonights game and noticed that a good percentage of Fieldens knock ons where down to interference from Leeds players, though i suppose most teams try to get away with it these days

He is the biggest waste of money in the history of Super League.

He's been playing pretty well this season but tonight he had a shocker. 6 knock on's was it? A couple of penalties aswell. If it wasn't for our fantastic defence, he could've cost us some points.

Fielden has always tried to steal yards after the tackle is complete, often (these days anyway) losing the ball in the process. If he just stood up and played it, he probably wouldn't lose it.

not denying that but there was deffo 2 incidents where the ball was knocked/reefed out of his clutches maybe even 3 times, he wasn't as bad as he looked tonight imo

Possibly, but it's a bit like the Senior penalty for obstruction. If you get a reputation for doing it, it often works against you.

Ryan Bailey's reputation as a dirty player won't be any cleaner after that showing, I've seen some blatant chicken wing tackles in my time but that one took the biscuit.

Moving off the mark? You're having a laugh. Fielden was, as usual, targeted and had the ball stripped/pulled/interfered with throughout. Typical lees though.

Worst individual performance i have ever seen from Fielden tonight, hes been fantastic this season but that was just beyond pathetic.

You must have missed the leeds player lying under fielden and pulling the ball out then?

I'm not saying he had a good game by a long shot. Plenty of unforced handling errors too.

You must of had your eyes closed for the immense effort he put in defensively all game then?

Hes stupid at times he slams the ball into the ground and pushes off whilst getting up trying to act all big and hard. But tbf i wont give him to much stick for this one performance because he's played much better this year so far.

Just make it up to us next week Stu and have a stornmer

So did everyone, but in attack he was just absoloutely disgraceful thats not acceptable at all

fielden has been fanatstic all year. His work rate his second to none and defensively was very good again tonight. Some of the knock ons were down to interference which led to his frustration. But some were down to keeness for a quick play the ball in wet condtions. Stu had an off game, but he loves playing for wigan and works his ass off. Keep it up stu, dont get put off by tonight

I think you should maybe watch the game again when you've calmed down, and then pass comment. As at least =#FF0040some of the incident's you're fuming about had more than a hand or two in them that wasn't down to Stu.

Im calm, i dont think he had a good game, end of. Everyone else managed to keep hold of the ball the majority of the time.

Seriously, watch the incidents again. A couple he was at fault for, a couple he wasn't.

Not his best performance by any means (when getting up and playing the ball), but he still made decent metres and put in a crap load of work defensively including some important tackles.

I think that's a harsh assessment Mother Feka. Fielden did come up with a few errors, but some were blatant ball steals and it seemed like a deliberate ploy by Leeds. The way he was running the ball back in off kick offs was great though, and I'd guess that he made a huge number of metres in attack and plenty of good tackles too.

Poor with his handling for sure, but disgraceful and unacceptable he was not.

Feka has been dropped for less......

Nor is a defensive effort enough to keep you in the team these days apparently.

I like Fielden and Coley and I'd be offering them both a new deal after Easter but fair is fair Feka & Fielden deserves to be judged by the same rules laid out previously.

Mother feka. You're name sake is probably the worst player currently vying for a first team place. Certainly at prop; yet you're having a pop at Fielden.

in your first post you say it was a high percentage then in your second u say a deffo 2,so if he knocked on 6 times and 2 of them where reefed that is 33.333% that is hardly high mate

Feka may be needed to replace Coley, not Fielden.

Fielden had a mare tonight but he's been great in the other games this year.

The thing is with Fielden (and the opposition knows it) is that if he starts playing badly he can go into a sulk and it can go from bad to worse.

Of course they do, and even applying the same rules, Fielden tonight was far far far better than any of Feka's appearances this season.

And? Its just a username on a message board whats your point?

Fielden had a bad game whats so harsh about that? I also said hes had a fantastic season before tonight, I would still pick him next week and I think he is the best prop at the club but he had an absolute stinker tonight. Get over it!
