To recognise Fielden as a hard man of Superleague is rapidly becoming the biggest joke ever. I have quoted it first!!! In 2 years he will be playing in the National league because he cannot cut the mustard. He is getting owned by the up and coming youngsters.

How the hell anybody can defend Fielden after last night is beyond me. He was truly terrible, anybody saying otherwise must either be his agent or related Prescott was ok but he just seems to lack that bit of oomph to be a decent prop. Coley would of made a big difference imo because he doesnt make too many silly handling errors.

We did blow some big chances though too, if Farrell had of scored that chance he fluffed we would of won imo because we had the on the rack at that point. If you add that to the Richards no try which could of been given if they were playing the same rules as we had against Saints we still had the chances.

We were always going to struggle against the size of their pack with the players we had out but with the ref being so lenient as well that really didnt help.

P.S When Riddell wasnt on the field we looked e and had no go forward whatsoever.

The thing Wire did last night was get stuck into Fielden and get stuck in quick therefore taking out our front row, if Fielden had another 2 fully bonified props playing along side him Wire wouldn't have been able to do it to all 3. We lost the game last night because of our pi55 week front row, even with Coley we still would have struggled, we are desperate for another fully bonified prop to play along side Fielden, Coley and Lima if we sign him with Prescott, O'Carroll and Davies waiting in the wings.

Fielden carried our front row last night against a big and aggressive Warrington front row as Prescott isn't up to it he is more a 5th choice prop.

If we sign Luke Bailey and Jeff Lima and keep both Coley and Fielden then games like last night would have been won.

What gets me is people seem to think 1 prop will fix it.

In the first half last night our whole pack got bullied by Warrington, and when some of our younger players needed more experienced, hard knocks by their side Wigan were lacking.

It's useless signing a prop, if we don't bring in a tough, class second rower last night.

How different would've last nights game been if Wigan would have had Hoffman and Hock in the mix?

Bulk up Karl pryce and teach him how to run in properly instead of like a girl n stick him in at prop ha

Wire knew Coley was out and O'Carroll injured. So they targeted Fielden and Prescott also knowing MM wouldn't play Feka!
Once Wire managed to keep hold of the ball they just got stuck in to our two props. They made mistakes because they got batttered repeatedly!

Keeping Feka on the bench and Deacon taking his spot for less than 10 mins was Leeds all over again. Feka can do 20-25 mins and should have been out there. For next week MM's got to go with four props at HullFC. Coley's back and either he plays Feka or brings Davies back from Widnes.

Wire though didn't complete a set until over 15 mins into the game. With all their mistakes we should have had three or four scores on the board. That was the worst opening of a game by a pro rugby team I've ever seen yet we were only 6-0 up. It was obvious that when Wire got their game going they would be a threat and so it proved. First time in our half they score and then score again going in 12-6 up at half time.
I do think we lost the game in the first 15-20 mins.
