| Quote: pondmonster "Real strange one for me. When he first signed I thought he was awful, always 3rd man in the tackle, never breaking a tackle, always losing the ball. Then we went to Salford and he had a blinder against his former club, and we were laughing and saying why can't he put that type of performance in every week. To his credit, he has and I see him as one of our most consistent if unspectacular props.
If you had to rate our props what would you go for?
For me
Hard to tell without seeing Fielden play this year, some of his performances last year were sensational.
But Mossop has been the pick of the bunch who've played with Prescott 2nd up.

Andy Coley is very underrated IMO and there are plenty of overrated players in Super League.
No disrespect to Salford but I often think opposition fans in particular have this pre-conceived idea about him that he simply is an average prop and was the best of a bad bunch at Salford. This is were he spent the majority of his Super League life. I think this way of thinking has followed him to Wigan and yet his form in 2009 and particularly last year has deserved higher plaudits and more recognition.
For me, our best prop in 2010.

I hope this thread is a wind up because if it is not then I just don't understand threads like this - we won the GF last year - we are joint top this year (with a game in hand) and still player get slagged off. Go figure!
For mine Coley has done a very good job for the team in the last two seasons - even this year he has still done a solid if unspectacular - what more do we need? All champion teams have the grafters, if he is a plodder then let us hope we can find another plodder when he finishes.

Sounds like some of the comments about Ratchford in the rumours thread - deja vue? |

Couldnt agree more, the dominant Melbourne team had 4 props who were grafters (exception with Blair switching to prop) |

Not slagging Fielden off as he was pretty solid last season, but to say he was sensational is OTT. |

I said some of his performances were sensational - Hull and Huddersfield at home and Leeds away to name a few. Overall however I'd still rate his year as more than solid. |

| Quote: tugglesf78 "Andy Coley beasts in both attack and defence like no other player we currently have (Hock excluded).
He hurts people in when running the ball and is almost cruel in defence.
The best prop for the last two years for my money, i would not swap him for many others in SL.
If we had him at 25 he could have been a club legend.'"
Agree 100%
Everything he does is damaging. Whilst he has not hit the form of last year he has still been very good for us. The St George game he took the best pack in club rugby on, on his own and held his own. |

Massively impressed with him in that game, he was outstanding. |
