Didn't see the Celtic game but we need Feka, at least he breaks the line regularly. A very handy player to bring on for three short stints to pick up the pace and get us on the front foot in attack. Having said that he needs to get a little more agile as he doesn't seem to slide quick enough in defence, leaving us wide open for a nifty hooker/halfback to exploit.

From what I read the guy's got big ambitions to play in the NRL as well.






Wigan vs Leeds finals aggregate score.

Wigan 178 - 64 Leeds

Wigan wins - 6 Leeds wins - 0


I have come here to chew bubblegum and kick ass, and I am all out of bubblegum.

Don't you struggle. Don't you fight. Don't you worry, cause it's your turn tonight!

Sorry mate but he is the last person we need, Unfortunatly Nathan is well past his sell by date and has very little impact in the NRL these days, Keith Galloway from Wests would be an ideal target as a tough working prop but he has another year to run on his contract, as for an enforcer theres none around, so it looks like we have to be patient on the prop front.

He's five years past his best, perfect signing for Wigan :lol:

Yeah, he has mentioned that. Makes him more unrealistic for you.

Feka is a talent. Just altogether part of a back pack lead by a manager who isn't able to motivate.

He's job is to come on and smash up the line in 20min spells, to gain as many yards possible. There's no one out there, (maybe Moi Moi) who does it quite like Feka.

He's size adds to his ability to smash the line, if he was supported correctly we'd have more opportunities as he nearly always breaks the line.

He is only there to do 20min spells. Not be an enforcer workhouse or any other kind of prop. He's good at what his game is.

I still contend he would be better if he was fitter. Less bulk but more speed would mean he could still hit the line with the same momentum but could probably regain his feet quicker and contribute more in defence for longer periods too.

It's just an opinion, of course. I accept we have more pressing matters at hand! :wink:
