Is he fully fit?

Says on the site he is intresting reading the Hudd thread no one has mentioned him in their squad, If he can play what a game to make a come back get that fire back into him what he's been lacking since Mason sparked him out

he will never have that fire again

Sorry but he's 10x the player biscuit boy Perry is

should of offloaded him can't see him being much cop this season

I think he'll be a good squad player for us but he's not gonna our best prop.

Really think we will miss Coley this season in a big way.

Given a choice of a fit Fielden and a fit Coley I'd have Fielden any day. Apart from this last twelve months Fielden has been one of the most durable and best props in the Superleague era.

He's said on twitter he expects to be back in action late Feb to Late March.

I'm just hoping he meant early March because his injuries really seem to be dragging on and on now and it's frustrating for everyone not least him i'd guess.

I'd take Coley just for his sheer consistency. Mr reliable in the big games and when the game is going tough.

Both very good players but Coley, imo of course, has had a better Wigan career.

I'm not sure Coley has had a better Wigan career tbh. Is it not just that expectations on him were a lot lower then they were on Fielden?

Fielden helped keep us up starting his career in good form, then lost his form, re-found it again, won a grand final and then won his international place back.

Coley started his Wigan career slow for a couple of years then like Fielden everything picked up for him under Maguire.

People always judge Fielden against expectation which was/is huge when in reality if you just look at his form minus the reputation and it's been as good as any prop in the league over the past few years bar maybe the big guns of Graham/Morley/Peacock.

I'd definately take Fielden over coley, agree 100% with what NickyKiss has said above. Not to mention Coley for me was frustrating to watch at times, he always seemed to give away penaltys at the exact wrong moment and it frustrated the hell out of me.

When you consider that he cost £450,000 and at Bradford was considered by many to be the best prop in the game surely the likes of Graham/Morley/Peacock are exactly the calibre of players that he should be being compared to.

For what its worth I dont think he has been as bad as many Wigan fans like to make out but again dont think he has been as good as some try to make out either. He has certainly never regained the form he showed early in his career at Bradford and even though some try to blame the Mason punch for me this has nothing to do with it as his form was declining way before this.

Coley under Madge was fantastic prior to that he was not the player we hoped we had signed. I really wish he had done another year. His performance against St George was stunning, taking on their pack on his own. Fielden will come good I have no doubt but the more effective of the 2 on a good system for me was Coley.

Coley blossomed under Madge and was a very effective and very good player for us. Fielden was great when he signed in 2006 and was a big reason we avoided the drop but despite being slagged off too much when he was fit to play he can't complain if Coley is considered the more effective player since then because he has been.

Coley has a SL ring and CC winners medal and deserves both because he made a big contribution to us winning both trophies. He did not get these medals because he was an average player in a good team. He helped make it a good team. Fiielden needs to fill his boots IMO and if he does then that will be great for the club.

Out of curiosity, how old is Fielden now?

Think he's 32
