last night Fielden was smacked all over the pitch by Big Eorl, not the most aggressive, forward in SL. maybe Fielden doesn´t fit at Wigan, maybe he´s over the hill ?, maybe a move back to the Bullhole might resurect his career? Will he take a pay cut, can you afford him?

Crabtree seems a gentle giant, he offered Fielden out calling him glass jaw and Fielden produced feaces in the back of his shorts. He should have just banged him! I remember when he leathered Jason Smith off Hull, whats happened?

Fielden is an enigma. There can be little doubt that getting rid was a great bit of business considering his form since.



Some say Fielden stopped being any good after being clubbed in the face by someon's Willy(or something like that). I think it was before that.



The last game I can recall him being absolutely world class was for Bradford against Wests. The only way I can think to get his passion back would be to bring Barrie Mac out of retirement and loan him to whatever club Fielden is playing against each week. Then he can do that cocked-arm thing he used to do until the willy incident.



Remember how much it took off? You'd see kids in the street cocking their arms wherever you went. The club shop even sold prosthetic limbs pre-cocked which we'd all wave in the air when we scored. Fielden took it in good spirit though I'm sure. Until he got slammed in the mush with a willy that is....

He was shocking last night - surely you are not desperate to have him back?



Stay well clear!

I' buy a season ticket on the strength of Stu coming back. He's my hero (and I don't have many)

What about Scruton?

I don`t think it`s desperation; more that we can remember Fielden when he was rightly regarded as in the top two or three props in the world.



Whatever has happened since, that same guy must still be in there, laying idle, waiting for the trigger to bring it out; after all so much of sporting performance is mental and a coach with a bit of psychological nous might well be able to find it.



Whether, or not, that coach works at the Bulls I`m not certain, nor am I sure of Stu`s age, probably around the thirty mark at a guess, and that is far too young to regard a prop as a busted flush imo.

As several people have said, Fielden has never been the same since he got panned by Willie Mason. Also anyone else think his motor may of burnt out bit too early?

I think Fielden would be a great signing, he's not as good as he was in 2006, but he's still a good prop forward and better than Craig Kopczak is and probably ever will be. Given his drop in performances and his status being lowered then I doubt it very much that Stuart would be able to command the dollars that he would have been able to say 3 or 4 years previously. If we could get him for a reasonable price then I would love him back at Odsal. People would still like to see Momoi here, I'd much prefer Fielden back. Plus he'd count on the homegrown list.

If we got him for a decent price and he could pull his head out of his then yeah I'd take him back at Odsal.

I'd leave well alone.



Prefer to promote one of the juniors instead.

It a gamble Bradford can afford to take?
