Speedy recovery wishes from all of us to the big guy. If it's true then we have the power this season to cope.

I think it would take more than a torn pec to finish big Stu's career tho. See u next Feb stu!!

Finished? That's premature. This is a blokes career we're talking about and he ain't going to give that up easilly. For a player to take early retirement takes a pretty monumental injury with no real sign of a full recovery, then they can claim on insurance. Fielden was nearing fitness from the knee injury that has kept him out this season, if it's a torn pectoral muscle well then it's adifferent injury which is by no means a career ender. 12 weeks out, which ends his season. He'll be back next season. Good luck.

could be a nice signing for Widnes, good job we're looking at bringing Luaki in, lets hope we can score another big prop from down under plus a and a replacement for McIlorum while were at it

Gutted if true

I'm only kidding Chris........

This

should he continue to struggle in pain? what has he got left to prove? Hes done it all, he can retire with his head held high

Ridiculous to talk of him being finished. He will come back stronger next year.

Anyway has this been confirmed yet?

Not to high, don't want him exposing that glass jaw.

Tusons tweeted him about something. No reply yet though!

how the hell has he torn his pec he aint touched a rugby ball in months

Lifting weights? Full contact training?

hmmm

i posted a week or so back that he told me at the cas game he would be out for a couple of months yet .................

Only the dirty bitter Wire players Grix and Atkins reported to the RL so far! maybe tackles around the leg are legal?

Fielden's contracte to the end of 2012.
Why would he not play for us next year?

Lifting weights is highly likely I imagine Stu doesn't go light with his weights gutted for him if true but I think we can manage with out him.

Perhaps if Tony Smith had coached his international three-quarter line (

) to tackle round the legs, they'd still be in the Cup.

Any more news on this?

Dont worry we only got 5-6 weeks more of Ron on any forum as school starts again. Its kids like him that real makes you wish that they still put children down a coal mine for 18 hours a day.

Now confirmed:

That's a shame. Lets hope his recovery goes well and he comes back in 2012 chomping at thee bit!

Pushed himself too hard in the gym - that's Stuart's problem, he doesn't know when to take his foot off the gas.

Silly bugger. He was 100% fit but when to hard to early. I feel for the guy I really do but he should have known better.

I'm sure he'll be fine for next year. He's just been a little unlucky.
