I'd be surprised if Coley goes TBH.

Gets through a ton of work, and seems to be exactly the sort of player that Madge wants/we need.

I think its more a case of him retiring. Shame, decent prop he has turned out to be this season, good work ethic . Heard that if he does play for another year it will only be at wigan though, he's not interested at playing elsewhere.

Another classic Feka performance on Sunday.

Less than twenty minutes gametime. Seven carries and one poor offload.

What a waste of money.

to be fair his go forward was good. But he came on when we were doing a lot of defending so Madge took him off quickly. His second spell was better.

Credit Huddersfield for that first spell, I think - they continually targeted him with their runs, in what I assume was a premeditated strategy. Problem (for them) was, of course, that it left the rest of our defence relatively fresh.

Signed a contract with Bradford last year IIRC for a few years.

A player who has been mentioned a few times who is rated very highy is Jeff Lima. He would be a great signing to replace Feka, should he not be part of Madge's plans.

I don't think we should forget about Ben Davies though. People are raving on about him and he has got better & better each week at Widnes (just read the comments on their forum). He's going to be a cracker for us.

Hiya, I was a category Z last night, in work and couldn't even listen on the radio, did Feka get much game time last night ?
With Maguire saying this was an opportunity for him, did he take it ?
Thanks

1st stint was good, with some typical drives, second stint less so, and caught flat-footed in defence at times.

Cheers, I really hope he can achieve what Maguire wants from him, I think he can still turn a game for us when he's on form, the try against Saints being a prime example.

Feka hasnt really kicked on from the Saints game, i really dont think he will be here next year which is a shame.

i'm preparing to be shot down in flames here, but ....

i think andy powell would be a great 2-3 year option as a feka style prop.
he's british, has played RL as a school boy, is fitter and stronger than Quinnell was when he came over, and with MM as a coach i really do believe he can made into a quality impact RL prop forward.

phew. got it out. tin hat on

fire away

I think your right he will over time become a good RL player, the only down sides are he'll take a fair time to adjust, plus his wage demands will be rather high.

As I was watching a couple of Oz games this morning on MSK I was thinking how good the forwards were and that none of them had Feka's build (even though he has slimmed). With the money he is on he will definitely be leaving and I'm sure we'll get a great replacement.

I agree, think if the wage demand was right, he could do a job. Fast for his size, has a step and playing loose forward in RU he can play the ball.

I can do one better for being shot down mind - Clint Newton. No nonsense, settled in SL and probably HKR's best performer of the last few years? Replacement for Stu?

I don't think it will take him that long. Like ShortArse said he played League as a schoolboy and to be fair there's not a great deal he'll have to learn about playing prop in League that he won't have done before in yawnion
