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.

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.

I'd describe him as an "unsung hero".

From Wigan players Stevo will always choose Paddy, Sam, Tommy or Lockers for MOTM and I'm not suggesting that these players are undeserving as they are all consistently good for us but I've sometimes thought other players have been as deserving or more deserving in certain matches. Andy Coley has been one of those. George Carmont another.

what a load of rubbish this thread is! Andy coley has not got a lot of fans and I cant understand why. I agree he is not spectacular, but he has been over the last 4 years a lot more consistent than any of our current props. He is an out an out work horse who every now and again has a blinder. He was outstanding in the St George game, a real leader on the pitch. Unfortunately I think his ageing body is preventing him from putting in that sort of performance week in week out howver he still remains solid.

Madge obviously rates him as Coley has never been dropped from the team whilst Magde has been in charge and most of the time Coley is in the starting 13. I prefer Madges opinion on the players than some strange opinions of them on here.

Coley has been a good signing for Wigan .

by far one of the best forwards we have had since we moved to the jjb (sorry dw)

jesus wept!! Coley is great player - cant believe people think otherwise. Coley works hard every game, is a great leader and appears to have cut out the silly penalties and errors from his game. Some of his tackles are immense - real bone crunchers. We will miss this lad when he retires.

Coley might not be playing as well as he did last season but that's understandable due to his age. He's still the most consistent prop we have and whilst he might take a back seat sometimes this year he's still doing what needs to be done.
Prescott and Mossop may have performed better than him overall this year but that's down to their own improvement as much as anything else.
He's still capable of putting in some excellent performances and is a real asset to the club. Sometimes a player who will perform steady and have a few good games is better than having a player who is inconsistent.

What's that saying? Props win pots?

I think the thread has proved he's got plenty of fans and is very highly rated by the majority. He gets the job done and when the big games come round is at his best.

A quality player.

He picks and chooses his games for me one game he can be awesome others quiet

He was wasted at salford and come on leaps and bounds with us

Coley is imense, works hard & puts the tackles in. The only negative I have is he could run the ball in harder but would use more energy which would have a negative effect on his game plan.

I agree with converted warrior. And clifford.

Agreed. Best game in his Wigan career for me

Coley is the type of grafter who gets you into the right positions time after time after time, which then sets a platform for our flashy attackers to do their stuff.
