"I'm 49, I've had a brain haemorrhage and a triple bypass and I could still go out and play a reasonable game of rugby union. But I wouldn't last 30 seconds in rugby league." - Graham Lowe (1995):20201.jpg



Hi, as a Bulls fan I'd be interested to know which paper it was in? I think he fits the type of player the Bulls have specialised in before, but mixed feelings as to whether or not he's what we need now. I'd like to see some quality backs in. I presume you're replacing him with Lima, which probably fits with MMs style of having more mobile, fitter forwards. However, can't say I've been impressed with him when I've seen him for the Storm, seems error prone and doesn't get much more game time than Feka. He's obviously better in defense than Feka though. Anyway, any steer you give about where this is and whether or not is has been confirmed would be helpful. Cheers.

Wish him all the best, although I wish he's have joined a club on the up instead on one on the decline.

Let's hope he can go out with a reminder to Wigan fans of what he can really do starting with tonight.

Good luck to the big guy. In a lot of the games under Noble the standard of rugby was relatively boring, with only Feka, Hock or Barrett providing any real entertainment.

Feka is one of those rare players today who, when they get the ball, the crowd gets to it's feet anticipating.

Sad to see him leave.

Something very wrong with what you've been watching if you think Lima doesn't get much more game time than Feka, have you been watching the storm matches on fast forward?

He's consistently averaged 47/48 minutes per game since he Joined the Storm in 2008, and during his time on field has typically put in ~ 70% more tackles than Feka per game, whilst making both more metres per game (backs up the fact he's on the field a lot longer) and more metres per carry than Feka

Lima's been a bit quiet this Season for the storm, but so have several of their players GI & Cam Smith for example - understandable given the cicumstances around that club.

I wish Feka all the best in the future, and he's provided some good entertainment - that's my heart speaking. My head speaking feels we're better off without him and having Lima instead.

What's that coming over the hill.......:



I'm absolutely gutted that Feka is leaving icon_cry.gif

I still believe he hasn't been allowed to show what a great played is under the reign of MM, he isn't given enough match time and gets slated as from people saying it's because he can't last that long on the pitch, he always manages longer when playing for the under 20's.

MM definately has some problem with Feka icon_confused.gif

I wish Feka and his family all the very best for the future, he's a true gent! eusa_clap.gif

I'm sure he'll do a good job for you and he's obviously a decent prop, just never been too impressed with him personally, I watched him against the Warriors the other week and he made a number of errors and just didn't seem that impressive when compared with Blair etc, this is also the impression I've had of him in the past - but his stats looks good and he's an international forward who MM knows well, so no doubt he'll be a good signing. Still interested in what paper this was in if someone will be good enough to tell me?

Quote: TrentBarrett "Potter trying to rebuild the big heavy Bradford team that once dominated? I've always liked Feka but I suppose hes not a MM type of player.'"


You mean he expects a player to be fit enough to contribute more than 15 minutes per match?

I understand what you're saying perfectly, and it's unfortunate that the Warriors game was one you looked at - it was a poor performance from the Storm and quite a few players.

Says "the paper" ...apart from that I have no idea. Could be a local Wigan paper.

I think the OP was referring to Dave Parker's column in the Sun.

Not reliable to say the least but in this case the bloke's just reporting a story that's been doing the rounds for a while - it seems very likely to be true.

Luke Mclean:



I think if true it will be a great signing for bulls. Yes hes a 20 minute player BUT when he is on the field he creates alot of damage to opposition. Hes far better than kopzack and crossley anyway. Good signing imo

Feka improves Bradford, and without doubt Potter needs some drastic quality injections to that squad.

I'm partially sad as he has given me fond memories but happy generally as I think his form (U20's and first team) hasn't warranted a new contract.
