Real shame. I used to dislike Fielden for the fact he was awesome.

However i rarely take interest in his game anymore. He is rubbish, simple as that really. Does no more than your average props in SL e.g. Bryn Hargreaves.

He was boomed by Oliver Elima today FFS.

fielden should come to the nrl.

big bloke with all the skills.

our coaches would get the most out of him

hes could be one of the most forwards in the world.

The thing is, he isn't even that these days, either the rest of SL has got a whole lot bigger, which it hasn't. Fielden needs to put on a couple of stone of muscle mass, he used to be quite an imposing figure, now he just looks like a tall athletic bloke, not a prop.

It's a shame, he was a great player and I still think he has the capacity to be just that... needs a lot of graft to get there though imho.

maybe hes just not interested.

im sure with one off season in the nrl hed be back better than before.

when the bulls played wests tigers, their forwards s**t themselves. they said he belted them.

id like to see him join ellis at the tigers. they need some size in their pack. plus ellis needs some mates there so someone can converse with him without subtitles.

Maybe... However to do rediscover any form I think he needs to rediscover the drive to get back to the top of the game, he wanted a change of scenary from the Bulls, I wonder if this drive was already waning at this point, a change of scenary hasn't worked.

I remember him having a go with Barrie Mac once... can't remember if it actually came to blows, but ye you could be right about him not being involved in actual fighting and probably more gesturing and intimidating stares.

There were actually several fights between the two, which always had plenty of punches exchanged.

I started a thread about Fielden on Redvee lately.

It seems more than just getting hit by Mason, it seems that he has no confidence and doesn't believe in his own ability anymore.

He just doesn't run the ball in hard, doesn't really make yards and never looks like he is going to break a tackle.

It is a shame to see, he used to be an excellent prop.

Lets not forget Radford handed him his booty in the charity boxing event. He has lost that hard man tag and he is a victim of playing too many minutes early in his career IMO.
