So you've registered with a Privacy Proxy Server of the type normally used by whistleblowers, journalists and Chinese dissidents who wish to hide behind something or have something to hide.

Why did you go to all that trouble just to make a bland comment about Ryan Bailey ?

TAXI!

i'm at a loss as to why every week there is hype over wether he played well,poorly,had a fight,didn't have a fight whatever.
he is a decent SL prop,no more than that. on saturday he was as average as the rest of the team,no better,no worse. he put in a cheap shot at the end of the game. so what? show me a game where a bit of frustration doesn't creep in and someone does something like that.

i don't follow

what's a 'Privacy Proxy Server'

As for my comment on RB i thought it relevant what a pundit and commentator would think in a thread about him.

Why would someone go to all that trouble and then try and deny that they haven't a clue what they were signing up for ?

ok you lost me.

why are you looking at me that closely anyway?

This isn't my computer or my house, i'm at my uncles having just got back from london.

Funnily enough he is a journalist like you mentioned before.

Tell me if i have broken a rule and i wil try to remedy it

Just checking

This doesnt mate any sense :s

The irony in this is beautiful.

Ha ha!. I hadn't spotted it live at Wembley, but on the recording Bailey had a cheap shot at Carvell late in the game and after the PTB Carvell went after Bailey who backed off rapidly. "Most Feared" I think not. On Saturday Carvell gave an excellent display of how a prop show play.

Keith Senior told them both to grow up. Who needs a referee.

yes he had a average game along with most of the team but as long as he stays at leeds and keeps getting under your skins he'll do for me

So thats, Paul Sculthorpe, Paul Rauhihi, Matt King and Gareth Carvell, who the TMFMISL has run away from.

Who will be next? My money is on Craig Hall or Tom Briscoe. If one of Hulls props manage to get hold of him though, we might be in for a repeat of when Adam Blair grabbed him and Bailey soiled himself.

Now that end comment made be hilarious. Most of the game (Saturday) when defending, he was almost positioned as a full back

28 tackles 0 misses
10 carries 48 metres
According to LE

Did really show a lack of skill to not score in the first few minutes. Also dropping the elbow on Riley was a proper sh*thouse move, although one born from frustration and something he doesn't do as much of as he used to.

Someone stated that

"On Saturday Carvell gave an excellent display of how a prop show play."

and that Bailey is just a cheap shot merchant.... I have no sympathy with his shot on Riley at the end but did anyone else notice the cheap shot by Carvell on Buderus that led to Buderus's second knock-on after five minutes. Buderus is lying on his back with a Warrinton forward laid across him and Carvell came in over the top and smashed his forearm over Buderus's forehead. Hardly surprising that he subsequently knocked-on: he probably couldn't see clearly for a minute or two afterwards.

Bailey is no saint and more than capable of being a complete numpty when frustration gets the better of him - but then again, he isn't the only one either...

It isn't the first time that Bailey has been held up over the try line. IIRC it has happened at least twice in the last couple of seasons.

I think it is fair that Bailey takes some of the flak from Saturday's game, along with Leuluai. As our most experienced props they knew they had big shoes to fill in JP's absence but their performance was very disappointing. Without a forward platform there was no chance for the likes of McGuire, Sinfield, Burrow etc to show their skills. I would be very interested in seeing the stats for the game - it wouldn't surprise me if Hall, Delaney and Senior made more metres than our two first choice props for the day. IIRC the BBC see put a stat up late in the game showing metres made, and it looked like Warrington had made twice the metres as Leeds. Disgraceful. It was obviously a tactic to use the backs to share the workload but neither Leuluai or Bailey seemed to spend that long on the field.

Otherwise, Eastwood showed up better than the other heroes deemed fit to wear the badge by certain posters on this board. Kirke has come in for some unfair stick for THAT missed tackle, especially considering that Hall was the first one to miss (perhaps he was knackered from all the extra hit-ups so that Bailey and Leuluai could get a break?).

Anyone who thought Bailey was going to give us go forward on Saturday is deluding themselves, since he never has and never will show that ability. He was in there for a defensive job, which to all intents and purposes he did, and 29 tackles with zero misses would back that up. The fact that he was starting was more down to experience than to make expected yards, a decision IMO that was short sighted by the club, and would have preferred the yards option to start.

A professional rugby player from the position he was in and running at, should score every single time from that opportunity, but he really just does not know what to do with the ball in his hands, so it was hardly a surprise that he failed to score.

I don't think the props should take the blame for Saturday though. Our backrow (all of them) were quite frankly very dissapointing. They offered zero opportunites for the half backs from a running point of view, and each did their fair share of poor tackling. When you then take into account Senior stood watching for two of their tries and been at fault for the position they got for another, I don't see why the props should take the blame for the game.

I honestly don't think JP would have really made that much difference to the result on Saturday.

How many of those 29 tackles were ones where he was 3rd man in, when the opposing player had already been stopped?

I don't know, why don't you tell us if you are so sure?

The Bailey effort was halted by his own ego, he wanted to smash Mathers out the way, if he went low would have ed it. I felt sorry for Leeds as you came up against a fierce pack with out your best prop. Our defence was awesome as well.

There are quite a number of players in our pack whose go forward or metres gained is quite pathetic, not just on saturday but in general.
I've never been one for kneejerking but i honestly feel if you take Peacock, Lauititi and Eastwood out of our pack the standard drops quite alarmingly.
I just don't think there is enough size and power in the pack.
If JJB was an Aussie he would receive a hell of alot of criticism i can tell you that.

I'd also have preferred the yards option, I'm just not sure that we have one when Peacock's hurt or having a bad day. Barring him we don't have a single prop with the prove ability to make a double figure number of hit-ups in a game on a regular basis. Saints have the same problem IMO - neutralise Graham and all of a sudden their pack collapses.

Because he thinks he's hard, TMFTMITTISL was more intent on smashing a fullback half his own size by running over the top of him rather than making the scoring of a try a priority - a fullback who is notorious for being arm-flapping, gyrating turnstile when anyone attempts to run past him on either side. If there's one thing that turnstile fullback has always been fairly adept at, it's wrapping the ball up in one-on-one tackles due to his preferred method of tackling opponents upper body region.
