Goulding had a great game today and should certainly be kept at Wigan. Unfortunately Feka just doesn't seem to be what Madge wants in a player and may be released. Personally I'm left scratching my head at how Pryce even gets a game, he is the laziest, most lacklustre player I think I've seen, he makes a tackle and then needs 5 minutes to recover, and when he gets the ball out wide with a good run at the line why doesn't he just RUN!!! He needs hand-off lessons from Kevin Iro, he's got the physique, just hasn't got the temperament.

I think that's a tad unfair tbh. Yes, he's not the quickest, but the guy has hardly played for two years. I for one am glad Wigan showed faith in his throughout his injury problems and I think now there are the signs that he's getting back to being the player he was at Bradford. I'd hate to see the guy forced out of Wigan like so many others in recent memory, but as long as he's wearing cherry & white, he gets my full support.

I agree. He was playing well, in both attack and defence, and still looked full of running when he was taken off, then only brought back with about 10 mins left at the end.

One thing I didn't understand today was that his runs were not anything special yet he got roaring cheers and applause, yet Fielden's runs were more effective yet his were met with almost silence most of the time.

Hallelujah.
Plus Fieldens defence was superb.

Thirded.

Fielden had a great second spell today, did the work of 2 props.

Agreed. It's as if he has this 'Cult Status' that surrounds him that means he's untouchable, his weaknesses are either ignored or not seen by these fans. I agree that he can have the odd great barnstorming run every few games like the one he scored against Hull KR in the playoffs and the run he had against Hull FC a few years back. His defence is solid most of the time but when he gets fatigued, he backs off and lets other players tackle him. This has led to opposition players targetting him (like against Wire in the Semi last season).

In the late 80's, Wigan strived to be the best team in the land (and subsequently the world). By doing this the club had to make some unpopular choices by axing some players (fans favourites) in order to move to the next level. I feel we are going to go through this again. Feka, Phelps and Carmont I've heard, sad they might have to move on but if by doing this it takes us to the next level then go for it Maguire!!

Pryce & Goulding I'm sure will stay as will Ainscough as he's not out of contract.
Who will go is being narrowed down.
We won't know anything at all until players have been signed and if any are overseas their visa's have been issued.

Goulding is certain to stay. Wigan have the option for another year and I am sure they will take it after the way he has played this year. Ainscough is still under contract so he will probably still be here too. I think that Pryce will leave as I dont really see where he fits into this team and he will have to improve a lot to get a new contract.

We expect and see it off Fielden week in week out - unfortunately Feka is a hit with the younger fans more than most and this is were the cheers and applause come from I think.

fielden has been treated appallingly by alot of wigan fans. his work goes un-noticed but to be honest i have never seen a more professional player. his work ethic is second to none and defensively one of the best in super league. We look a much weaker team without him on the field. i for one would be gutted if he leaves at the end of the year.
