I dont think Coley, Prescott & Mossop are useless OH.
I think Mossop is viewed as a back row forward by Nobby and i think as a prop he would be excellent.Sorry but i do think Coley,O Carroll and Prescott are comparatively poor when you look at Graham,Puletua,Peacock,Burgess,Morley,Carvell,Lynch etc,need i go on? I do not fault them for effort but they are simply not good enough.As for Fielden well im lost for words.
I dont agree one bit OH.
Coley is up there with the best, he has proven it this season.
OK, Peackock & Graham will be first choice for England & GB, but Coley wont be too far behind on current form.
Burgess & Lynch have done nothing this season in comparisson, Puletua is a second row, albeit, a good one.
The people at Wigan I have spoke to definetly view Mossop in the longer term as a prop akin to Morley/Peacock.
Prescott has been playing superbly when you think Fielden is not backing him up. Imagine Stuart Fielden without forwards like Big Joe, Paul Anderson, Daniel Gartner at the same age. Fielden should be nursing the likes of Prescott through games not the other way around.
noble stated on telly that for 20 mins we couldn,t live with the pace at the ptb so why did he keep feka on monaghan made him look like an oak tree. we also had the switch wings debate the last time wire used king to great effect by putting in high balls ,so why did we not switch pat. we could have won this game with a coach that has a more flexible game plan and does go for 2 points when you are on top. also ganson was bloody awful ,should have binned morely,could have binned briers (did even give pen)and then took pity when a wire player went down without being tackled (pen) and then let him loose the ball and all because he hit his head on the ground which wouldn,t have happened if he had stated up and took a tackle
