| I think we only got him so that we had a massive area to sell advertising and put posters all over him when on telly, now that plan as backfired with the game being shown opposite the United City game.

| Quote: the wizz kid "the whole team needs a fitness plan at least when karl harrison was in charge we played for 80 minutes this is both player and clubs responsability. Yet again the club say every season we will finnish in top 8. And yet again there is no coaching evedent we are the only club in super league that have gone backwards instead of forward mcrae and the rest of is team sahould go bring in milward or brian noble they wont take any messing from the players and make them work hard. The players seem to be crap when they come to us why. It as to be down to training coaching and structure we aint got any.'"
Interestingly I heard an interview on BBC Manchester with Alan Hunte and he singled out Karl Harrison as the best Coach he had played under ...
Maybe Karl would have got him into better shape pre season is speculation.. but I'm guessing he would have done better than Monty Bentham.
When I asked players whether they are given strict Dietary guidlines they said no .but added they know what foods to eat . it's a far cry from the Wigan set up

| Blame your coaching staff - whoever is in charge at the moment! They gave Feka 10 weeks holiday in the close season. You don't need to be a genius to work out that Feka needs to work really hard in pre-season to get anything like what Wigan managed out of him.
If your conditioning and pre-season is not right then you know what to expect as the season progresses.
As an outsider looking in, seems to me you need a complete overhaul in the coaching area - starting with Simms, in particular. Noble is available and you should pull out all the stops to get him.

Of course Noble was terrifically successful with Paaleasina at Wigan

| You're right without even realising! One game away from the Grand Final in consecutive years. When did Simms ever manage that?

Paaleasina was a luxury in that Wigan side, they had the talent & ability to cope with someone who gave so few minutes on the pitch.
My understanding is that one of the first decisions McGuire took on coming in was that there wouldn't be another contract offered as he was such a liability in defence, and unfortunately at Salford you have to do a tad more defending than at Wigan!!

| You are correct but why didn't Simms recognise this as opposed to using Feka as a big name signing and using him in all their marketing for "the drive to the play-offs". Your conditioning stafff need to get their act together

| Best performance in a Salford shirt today. Helps that the rest of the team played well, but he even managed to put himself about in defence a little more and put in a massive hit at one point.

| have to agree - not on for long - BUT - what he did today was good - offloads, made yards, pulled in 3 or 4 of their players to stop him - just what he's built for
Well done Feka - best performance to date -
per ardua ad astra

This is EXACTLY how we need to use him , every game ! Big first stint for Cash always works better too ! i bet Vievers has been dying to implement this and credit because it worked...

Yes he has , today was the first time our 'coaching' staff (or what's left of it) used him correctly !
