Quote: Cruncher "I'm afraid it's true.
It's time we stopped kidding ourselves about Feka. And I hold my hand up as being one who's hopefully now learned the error of his ways.
I've never been totally delighted with him, but I've commented a lot that I've been reasonably happy with him this year. Well ... any good things he may have done earlier in the season were nullified by his no-show on Saturday. That was a truly pathetic performance. More than anyone else on the team, he was guilty of allowing Warrington to get too far ahead of us to catch them.
As someone else has said, now that we've got Mossop back, Feka needs to be dropped and told that he won't be picked again until he's lost at least a stone, maybe two. The conditioner in charge of him also needs a rocket up the backside.
Feka can be devastating, but only, it seems, when he's got others around him who are prepared to grind the opposition down with hard work. This is a luxury that we can't afford at present. Feka needs to start doing his share of the graft. He's a professional athlete, or supposed to be. There are many of his size who are a lot more involved in gameplay than he is.
Time to get tough with the big guy, or alternatively to start looking at the terms of his contract and investigate whether or not he's in breach of them by refusing to get fit enough to contribute.'"
Spot on...the bit in bold nailed the situation head on.
