The last bit of your sig

It's a bad year for tipsters

Hope your right about the bit above it though



That would probably mean us knocking Saints out in the final eliminator and that would be sooooooooo sweet

I'd settle for that every week!

Leuluai is improving and Fieldens form hasn't been the best but i'd still put them both in that middle bracket of prop. They're both not in the league of a Peacock, Graham or Burgess but are still good players.

Not much between them imo and if Fielden finds his form of the back end of last season he'd probably edge it for me.

if Fielden does that then he is in the league of the Peacock's and Graham's IMO

He wasn't far off for a spell of about 6-8 weeks but seems to have gone back inot his shell at the start of this year.

Hopefully Nobbys new found ruthless streak will give certain players a kick up the backside though and it seemed that way with Fielden when he came from the bench.

Amen to that



Fielden with that form and a Luke Bailey or Petero Civonaceva starting alongside him and we have one of the top packs in the league

Going a bit off track I know

A lack of a real tough leader at the side of him has really held him back imo.

If we get one of those a really do feel we'll see a better Fielden.

Did anyone notice Kyle go off after 15 minutes v Saints last Friday.

If that had been Feka there would be uproar from other supporters.

Offer him a reduced deal. With the cash freed up sign an experienced prop who can share the workload with Fielden and you may see the Bradford version.

I agree

When we see the best of Riddell this should help him too

I would like to see Pat and Sam support the ball carrier more (especially when Feka, Hock, Fielden, Prescott and Joel take it up) if they didn't get the offload it would be ok as more metres would be made because defenders would be attracted away from the ball carrier.

Leeds do this very well

He's off after 15 minutes every week

He does more in 15 minutes than Fielden does in 80.

I don't think so

And 2008 was even better

Fieldens marker tackles stat is impressive.

Any chance you can get Fielden's stats from Wire at home until the end of the season?

Where can you get individual match stats?

I think from Opta, but you may have to pay.

I've seen people quoting Fielden's individual stats from the Leeds game - surely people aren't paying for this? Talk about dedication!!

1) Fielden (29 tackles per game), Peacock (25 tackles per game), Graham (27 tackles per game), Morley (23 tackles per game), Dowes (31 tackles per game), Mason (28 tackles per game), Palae'aesina (16 tackles per game).
2) No, but we can assume he didn't come cheap given his reference to better contract / pay increase when leaving Bradford.

Is it just me who cant recall Fieldens attacking kick in 2008?

Might be worth a look aswell, because they play the same about of minutes.

Feka missed less tackles and given away less penalties.(there with Kylie playing 2 less games aswell.

What surprised me most is this one. www.superleague.co.uk/statistics ... eason=2008 Feka had more carries than Fielden last season, granted he played 2 extra games, but Fielden has far more of game time Feka.
