I love the guy, but he does tend to get injured a lot these days. I was meaning fit to play 80 minutes each week.

Don't know about that mate, he played 23 games last year and 24 games this year. Not much wrong with that.

Had a quick sanity check through the NRL app. The Fekster didnt play 80 mins (subbed in or out) in 5 games. Plus the one (was it one?) he missed is 6 games where he couldn't play the full game.

Poor bugger must play through some ongoing injuries to keep getting into the starting squad so often of the back of that.... can't fault his heart muscle, that's for sure.

Feki runs hard and get's pole axed in tackles on occasion or twisted awkwardly over the sideline - niggles can turn into injuries.
Hard to properly heal and recover during the season of which he just had his best ever for us despite not being 100% from early on

I don't think there's much cause for alarm, pre season and some time off will do him good

No alarm bells. Was just saying that I'd take a young sprightly up and coming Feki protogee any day of the week

Always has and seems always will have a mistake in his game, but loved feki this year admired some of his bulldozer turned kamikaze like runs when returning the ball from our end this past season. One thing I'd like him to address as someone pointed out earlier is not dragging his feet so much when reaching out to score, seems to get knocked over the chalk a little to easily on Occassion, it is a art form (put down) while your feet are still in the air that plenty have gone close to perfecting.

Wouldn't say no to that but happy to keep our current Feki as well who still has many seasons ahead of him

Yup it's one deficiency in his game as a winger, that and the hi ball although seems to be getting a bit better at both

Disappointing but I suppose he went for the $$$ & seen more opportunity, I hope he doesn't come back to bite us, I wonder whether he was wanted by us to stay on.

I hope he makes it at the Knights. He was ray of hope during bleak times and his body let him down. Moving on to a club that can provide him more immediate opportunities is the way to go.

To think Gagan would probably be starting for us now...

Was looking forward to seeing him run around with us for a full season at some point.
