| Quote: NickyKiss "Fielden and Feka coming onto the pitch turned the game on it's head.
One is finished as a top level player and the other is the most out of shape professional sportsman i've seen in a long while(outside of Andy Fordham).
The thing that really bugs me about Feka though is if only he'd shape up he could be such a fine player.'"
Feka couldn't be a great player, he's just big. With his body shape he 'could' play like Paul Anderson, but he's not within a million miles of the quality of Baloo.
Feka worries me. He is so fat that he cannot bend over, he literally struggles to bend his back. He gets dominated by much smaller players because driving with his legs isn't easy. He needs to lose 2 or 3 stone, he'd still have the body shape but wouldn't be blowing simply because he's stood up off the bench.
Fielden I have a lot of sympathy for. His career was destroyed by Brian Noble at Bradford and by being overplayed when still young. You have to wonder who makes the decisions at Wigan because the last few big signings have been shockers. Gleeson is headed for the career graveyard aswell and he looks completely out of shape too, too skinny with no power or pace anymore. You have to wonder if it's the conditioning at Wigan causing the prolems or a lack of motivation.

| Good game, Wire playing to a Tony Smith perfect game plan, Wigan coming back and nearly pulling off one of their comebacks made it great viewing.
Pleased for Briers and Morley who deserve to be in finals

Exactly. Most people, apart from some Wigan fans and to be fair even some of them doubted it, thought the Gleeson signing was a very poor one. Judging by the performances I have seen, where he has been either poor or annonymous, and according to several friends, who unfortunately are Wigan fans, this has been the case. Wigan just dont seem to learn their lessons and especially after signing Fielden you would have thought they would have been wary of signing another over the hill and overpaid player.

Thing is, many of them bemoaned his lack of service from the halves. But from what I've seen of Tomkins, most of his work comes down that right side, and they don't shut up banging on about him.

| since when could a referee give a decision, then decide to go to the video ref? in the second instance it was a bloody good job that carmont hit the flag given that ganson had already whistled for a turnover.

Mathers is not a first grade player he is garbage.
Tomkins is highly over rated and some here are saying Test quality? he would be torn a new bum hole by Oz or Kiwis.

Also if they played on from the knock on then he was pushed into touch, once going over the advantage line how is it a scrum attack?'" Yep my thoughts exactly said to my dad 'How much advantage does he want to get them! '?

I can just imagine how much HEAVY traffic he is going to get for the remainder of this season after everyone saw that tbh.

I agree about Mathers, he is a nightmare.
Tomkins however will, I believe, be INternational standard when he bulks up a bit. Alongside Eastmond he can be an International half back.
