yeah, i saw you ogling me in my shorts like i was a piece of meat. i felt violated

he may have a medal but he didn't contribute much.

i think, as i have said before, bailey has a bucket load of ability. sadly he rarely shows it

You saw me?

I had to completely ignore the players once I saw them tight fitting hotpants you had on.

they were crushed velvet. sky blue. really fetching i thought

Yeah, brought out the colour of your eyes I thought.

pmsl

You are only jealous.

should have seen all the gays at joseph on friday night. some real mincers about, they had lovely make up on though

of what?!

Tad's panties.

Are they as saucy as Lawries red satin thong?

Depends what floats your boat. Crushed velvet or satin?

i had forgotten about them.thankfully

Cracking thread drift this.

Bucket load of ability?
He takes the ball in at walking speed on most occasions, rarely breaks a tackle and has no handling game to speak of.
He is ok defensively and seems to have a fairly low error count. His only other contribution is to niggle the opposition, which to give him credit he does fairly well.
Still not what i would class has bucket loads of ability.

he has shown it, albiet rarely. when he does i think,why the hell can't he do it on a regular basis.
for me, his time has gone, time to move him on.

I'd rather have Ronnie out there than Bailey at the minute.

He's a walking waste of space.

Inept, ineffectual, bone idle.

Sadly there's no-one else at the moment.

What do people want of a prop? Genuine question.

Statistically speaking Bailey compares reasonably favourably with Luke Burgess. Slightly less on the yardage and fewer offloads but more tackles and far fewer misses and a lower error count.

What the stats don't show is the aggression, the niggle, the talking. They don't show the speed of PTBs either. There does seem to be an obsession with yardage and not a whole lot more.

As Gareth alludes - he's won 3 Grand Finals, played in 4, played for GB and been a regular under 3 different coaches in the last 6 years. I'm surprised they haven't found out this lazy player who doesn't look interested. Dean Lance would have sorted him out.

Luke Burgess is having a comparatively indifferent 'second' season but he still has arguably the better stats, which should come as a surprise given their relative age and experience which isn't really comparable.

Leeds retained Bailey first and were outbid for Scruton.

Good move?

Whatever the "order" of the contracts for bailey and scruton is irrellevant tvoc GH has a set value of each player and he wasn't prepared to meet what bradford offered scruton SIMPLES.

What Tvoc is saying though and I agree with him,had we not retained Bailey there would have been more money/cap manouvrability (SP) to try and make sure we retained Scruton who IMO offers a lot more than Bailey.

I would rate Bailey as the most ineffective of all our props and have held that opinion for the last 3 seasons irrespective of how many GF winners medals he has.

A set value would imply no room for negotiation?

I doubt Webb re-signed for a set value with no negotiation.

Ryan Bailey is a two time world club champion please people. Everyone already forgot his big game against the saints? He’s worth the season alone for that game!
