As good as Coley became in the last 2 seasons, he hardly cracked any pots when he first came to us. Fielden was a hit from day one. Yes he did suffer for a while but played on despite carrying injuries. Still think he's got a lot to offer. Forms transient, class is forever.

I don't think its fair to compare Coley and Fielden - one is a marquee signing and the other a good solid player who played some of his best rugby under Madges leadership. Coley , as already stated, played a part in helping Wigan get back to success and he deserves his medals. Coley was mr consistent and obviously had an impact on the team off the pitch because it was his teammates who voted for him as part of the leadership group. As previously stated his efforts in the st george game were heroic, and imo Coley has been great value for money . He more than proved himself in the last few years.

That said lets hope Fielden gets back to his world beating best this season. Nothing would please me more!

I hope i'm wrong but another setback for Stu could well see him calling time on his career. Captian13 and I were talking at the end if last year and he reckoned we'd never see Fielden again, I was doubtful at the time but he's had one setback already, another big one could see Dave being right for once.

I've been thinking the same, hence why I asked his age. He's been around since he was very young. Props usually peak when they get older but he was playing 80 mins as a battering ram pretty much most of his 20's and that's bound to take it's toll on your body.
