Fielden?

I don't know any other player in Superleague or NRL who has Feka's build. He just isn't mobile enough with the ball and never hurts anyone in defence.
He's earned good money whilst he has been at Wigan but the gravy train has hit the buffers. It's a shame for him but that's life.
I predicted a good season for him and piggy because I knew they would lose weight and Feka was playing for a contract. I was wrong regarding the latter.
Piggy has delivered because the extra fitness has meant he can display his considerable skills without blowing up.
However Feka losing the weight has merely shown that he has nothing else in his nal.

I'm pretty gutted. I was hoping to see a lot more from him this year.

When Feka is at his best I don't think their is a better impact prop in the world, that includes Moi Moi, the problem is that he cannot get back to his 2007 form.

Are you saying that Noble managed to get more out of him than Maguire?

I am saying that his form was better in 2007 than it is now. No comment on the coaches.

For whatever reason Maguire does not seem to want to get anything out of him, and although as a fan of his I am gutted not to see him play, you have to respect the coach and his long term vision for the club.

That seems a little harsh. I'm sure Madge and Mark Bitcon will have tried their damndest to get him to a level their satisfied with, but for what ever reason it's just not happened. At the end of the day they'll have set goals for Feka to achieve just like they will have with every player, and sadly for him it appears as though he's not matched their ambitions or expectations.

Well said

I did not mean that they will not have worked with him, simply that he clearly is not the type of Prop MM wants in his team.

Not being selected on the bench vs Leeds indicates that.

Although Feka is undoubtably a fans favourite I think that if he does go to another SL team I don't think it will take long for us to see his shortcomings.

Feka has been a good player for Wigan but much in the same way it was the right time to part company with Brian Noble now is the right time to part ways with Feka. He just doesn't fit in with our new, high energy style of play and as much as it will be a shame to see him leave it will be the correct move for the club and probably Feka himself as he needs to be playing at his age.
