I'm a huge fan in the main but he was terrible tonight i thought. They picked on him time and again in defence and he offered nothing with the ball for a change.

I can't say this anymore but he really needs to shape up on the fitness front. It's games like tonight when he gets picked on in defence and gets tired out to the point where he offers nothing with the ball.

He was on for just under 60 mins, which surprised me

Thought he did ok, several good runs at crucial times and did more game time than usual.

All down to perception I suppose....

I didn't think he was terrible but then again I had the benefit of watching the game on TV tonight due to being down south.

His game time was pretty good and he made a dent when he came on in the first half. I just think that wet weather and Feka don't mix, he isn't able to get momentum in his runs.

Funniest point in the game, (apart from Meli's boo boo

) was attempting to bend his back to try and get to the ball after Meli's kick inside during the 1st half. made me chuckle, he looked like a 60year old.

I'd agree with the weather comment, I've noticed for a long time that in bad whether on heavy pitches he's no where near as useful.

He isn't used right in dry weather either, he needs to running on to the ball and hit it at speed to to damage. Taking it flat he is easy to turtle and has very little impact.

He's never used close to the line, he's always the dummy runner. never ceases to amaze me that.

I thought Saints coped really well with his runs tonight and in defence picked on him time and again. Like i say i'm a big fan and i suppose this thread is going over old ground but he could be soooooooooooo much better then he is currently if he slimmed 'back down'.

Back down to the level he was at when he first joined.

He'd be like a new player.

But some might say he'd be only half the player he is now



Tbh I wasnt impressed by him tonight. He made a couple of good runs but he didnt dominate like you might have expected when you saw the team sheets,

Another liabilitatious performance tonight. How he managed not to scoop that ball up was a crime.

Tell me about it, it was like watching an oil tanker turn round in quick sand.

Jesus!! That'll have doubled his playing time for the season!!

It is very simple.

Feka. Needs. To. Lose. Weight.

Feka got shown up by Coley IMO, thought Coley had a top drawer game.

His 2nd spell was exceptional.

His first spell was ok and it took him abit of time to get going.

Barely noticed him in a good way all game. Where were these bar storming runs he's supposed to come up with?

We were missing our Anti-Feka too, James Roby. He knows how to tackle a rampaging Feka. Round the ankles and normally brings him down with ease.

Who's, Feka or Coley?

Coley.

I thought Feka was useless tbh.

Do for me. Obviously you know how hard it is for me to compliment one of your lot

Please watch the game again Feka was very effective in my opinion against a team that tackled very well.

I cannot believe some of the comments the lad made yards, found his front on every play and in his first drive walked straight over "Jammer" who was left in his wake.

Feka and Coley were pretty bloody good tonight, Prescott went well, Fielden did OK.

If anyone wants to have a pop at someone pick on Tomkins (J) who was garbage, i guesss though because he is from Wigan he is unable to be criticised.

Again i think the point i'm trying to get accross is Feka could offer us so much more then he currently is doing. His defence was all over the shop tonight and that is down to a lack of fitness imo.

He's a good player but could be great.

What was wrong with his defence?

He constantly ambled back into the line(because he was knackered) which allowed them to attack us around the middle time and again in the same way that Leeds did last week whilst he was on.

If Roby had been fit we'd have paid the price.

Have to disagree, he did very little wrong for me, certainly not a massive problem in defence.

I think people look for too much from Feka to be honest and are overly critical.

As i have noted Amos who had a poor game and Feka have got there own critical threads, yet Joel Tomkins who was shocking tonight goes under the radar for some resason.
