Re: logan
I didnt rate him much at Wigan to be fair... but... people who 'know better than me' will disagree with me and their opinions are correct I may add.

Re: logan
He was a good player, gave away a few too many penalties but was a difficult player to stop so kept the opposition forwards working hard when Feka was off the pitch.
Wigan would have done even better with Logan still at the club and the lack of a decent third forward has resulting in Fielden's poor form.

Re: logan
To be honest i never felt he performed to his full potential at wigan, thats not to under-estimate the contribution he made but thought he could have been better.

Started as a popgun prop and took along time to find his feet. However he became a really effective destructive prop and boy have we missed him this year!!!

Re: logan
he is an old fashioned prop, he runs the ball in hard and offloads. he was a great addition and i feel this is one reason why feilden hasnt been as effective this season.
we've missed him.
we've missed him.

Re: logan
fielden ahs been doing better recently if you'd open your eyes to see.
fielden benefits from having bigger forwards around him so they can take pressure off. he has o'carroll and prescott, and no offense tot hem, they aren't the sort of forwards fielden would look to to take some of the work load off him.
at bradford he had a huge pack. andy lynch went off, on came vagana or the big fella with ginger hair that they used to have. as soon as feka goes off, hes doing the work of two props because eamon and prescott, yes they have bright futures, but arent yet at the stage to compete against the best teams in the league.
which leaves fielden doing even more work than when he had another big guy to look to.

Re: logan
I look at it this way. Logan took half a season to become a very effective prop for Wigan. Craig Smith took longer than that. In the backs Richard took a season to find his feet and our scrum half seems to be taking the same amount of time.Doveoverdave posted:

When someone criticises players such as TL they are often told to give them the benefit of the doubt as it is their first season.
Given Logan took merely half a season to get up steam which is quicker than any of those players, I fail to see why people have to quality their praise of Logan. (I am not accusing you of this BTW).
He was IMO effective far more quickly than many of our fondly remembered imports such as C Smith.
