Lima isn't Feka. He's a hard working player who plays a completely different type of game to Feka and definitely shouldn't be expected to play in the same way.

i dont know dont watch nrl
but was said on here he can have as much impact with the barnstorming runs but also defend and do more mins

Was statted on here many times feka is a poor mans Lima.

A few of the comments on Lima here are going abit overboard.

He has work today but he'll get there. He's a couple of games behind the rest of the lads and like I say his defence needs work but he shouldn't be written off.

His attack has been fine so far.

not slatting him hes done nothing wrong i was just expecting more
for me hes running the ball up like preccy before the leeds play off least year just no umf

i really hope he can step up we need a big enforcer prop and was he supposed to be the one?

A lot of players weren't themselves today, including Lima. He'll come good. Have faith.

strange, radio said it was his best game in a wigan jersey yet

i really hope so mate.

to be fair barring freindlys his only other game people remember for "two chicken wing tackles"

Not a good performance overall, but a cracking game with loads to talk about. Most important thing is the 2 points. Sometimes you have to win ugly. Too many of you expect far too much and need to give people a little time to settle. Early days in the SL season and unbeaten. What more do you want !!

i want 60 -0 every week and nothing else lol!

Lima played well, attracted 3 defenders every time and got a fairly quick play of the ball. Did 2 knock ons, one he should have taken, and one was a bad pass. Good game for the big man, he shall only get better too!

Agreed i think hes getting abit of harsh critisism myself

not critisim playin ok but came with a big rep and some of them youtube clips are brutal and were not seeing that YET

Not impressed with Lima yet if i'm being honest. Maybe we were just used to Feka's occasional barnstorming runs that we maybe expecting the same from Lima. I'll give him a few more games yet but he does need to sharpen up alot. His words during an interview were "i'm here to run the ball in at 100mph and to tackle as hard as i can" well i haven't seen any of either yet!

Hold on a minute give the lad a chance, he's just moved house halfway around the world!

I'd hold the knives at bay until he's had at least half a season - do you really think IL/MM would sign a turkey?

I actually thought he had a decent game. Made some good yards and never went to ground easily. He doesn't faff around whilst playing the ball and for me his defence is solid and 100x better than Feka (who I was a fan of), thought he put in a few decent hits too.

I have to admit ive been looking forward to Lima pre season more than any other player but im dissapointed, given time im sure il be satisfied but until then il have to give him 5/10 ... seen nothing from him, he simply has to try harder.

He'll come good. He put some great hits in today though.

I thought he played well yesterday, worked hard and never stopped. Still takes 2/3 men to stop him everytime he takes the ball up and takes a lot out of the defence.

Anybody remember Craig Smith or Pat Richard's first year?

Correct. Even Renouf and Barrett started slowly compared to what came after and with them you're talking about some of the best overseas players we've had in donkeys.

I think Jeff's been ok, no more than that. He suffered a little against Hull in attack as we were pretty sloppy and misfired on more than a few occasions, which spread throughout the team. He'd be a lot better off if he just put his head down and ran hard instead of all these stuttering sidesteps he does before impact. He's a big lad and can do a lot more damage than he currently is

Let's give Lima a chance, some players come flying out of the blocks and others take a
bit longer. If we put too much pressure on him it will only make things worse
