What actually happened, about 30 secs in. A little bit different from Durham's tear stained version.

I hope Bailey gets 3 matches plus and you Leeds get smashed again this week

When he said it last year about us his team did indeed the fortnight after try and take out some of our players. Tommy was hit a few times early on by Mason but the ref did nothing. To me it was obvious what they would do and they should have been looking for it. Instead, Wigan got sucked into a brawl and almost lost. When you have the pack that Hudds have it suits them to rough it up like they did at The DW.

No house tactics here.....I thought little Burrows was dammed sporting in helping him up!

That's brilliant DMV.

Stick it on the Ryan Bailey thread over on Southstanders where it'll be well appreciated!

Bailey's starting to get brave. He usually hides behind Burrow, now he's actually move on to letting Burrow hold someone before he hits him.

Bailey's was a red all day long, i do like how he wandered off after it, only for O'Donnell to realise there was something going on and run a mile 10 seconds after the fight to get punched in the face, gold. I don't think O'Donnell should have got a red though, he didn't seem to get to throw a punch. Anyone else see Seniors fists of fury too? If Sam got one match for running in and striking Senior should get one. I just can't understand why O'Donnel ran in, it was well after the flare up. If I was Nathan Brown I'd be more concerned that his marquee signing is more interested in fighting than playing

BRILLIANT!

why not let LOD go 1 on 1 with him because bailey would have to be carried off the pitch ?

i mean he had to let 5 leeds players try stop LOD and hit him on the way through his being pulled back and then bailed thinks oh yes im hard me ill hit him then back off again.

id like to see bailey try pick up LOD by the collar n start on him or griffin or mason or Fa'alogo

To be fair, as soon as there's a kick off, the first thing you're going to look for is where O'Donnell's coming from - 'cause he will be coming.

maybe so but if we had mason,griffin or fa'alogo on the pitch they would have been running in as hard and fast as he was because im sure they wouldnt have liked bailey picking up our captain then having a swing at him.

but ohwell its over and we spanked leeds which is a good thing

Leeds know all about him, didn't he give Peacock a good hiding a couple of years back.

Yeah no doubt

Cant get my head around how brown has been fined they are clueless up there

didn't punch first but shoved at bailey before bailey swung a punch. IMO.

Well, if anyone's interested, search for "Ryan Bailey And Luke O Donnell Sent Off After Brawl During Leeds Rhinos vs Huddersfield Giants HD" on the usual site.

Bailey comes in with his usual thug cheapshot on Brown. Brown is down (possibly milking it a bit), Bailey picks him up, Brown pushes and Bailey starts swinging, including the typical punch from behind a team-mate.

How or why O'Donnell is sent off is anyone's guess. How or why Brown is fined is anyone's guess.

And how Leuluai isn't at least binned for his shot on Brown a minute earlier is also anyone's guess. You can see the elbow and hear the slap - I don't think he milked that one.

Because it was about a second late. These things happen.

Bailey picked Kev Brown up like he hadnt even touched him when it fairness he had put a big shot in on Brown which resulted in him losing the ball.

Then Brown shoved Bailey (wrong I know but it wasnt exactly an aggresive shove) Bailey then punched Brown twice and then stood back whilst the rest of his team mates and the Giants were throwing handbags around... it was only when O'Donnell actually found Bailey did he actually get involved.

Okay, O'Donnell shouldnt go round punching Ryan Bailey (well he should

but its not allowed

) but if Bailey persists every week on trying to rough up the smaller players, its only fair when the likes of Radford and ODonnell go in hunt of him instead and see how he likes it back - Just like what kicked off our comeback at Headingly a few week back, 4 off our players putting a massive hit on him straight from kick off.

No, the swinging right arm/shoulder to the head as Brown is going down. Can't see that, I assume?


Oh right, pushing past Rob Burrow and getting punched is a sending off offence?




Exactly. It was late (which is illegal, in case you're not sure), malicious and high - the elbow is certainly up.

I cant, because you have made it up. Swinging shoulder is a new one though. Ryan Bailey must be the only human in the world to be able to make an illegal swinging shoulder tackle. God Alone knows how you swing your shoulders. He is also probably the only one who knows how to do it illegally as well.

He had no need to do it. He escalated the situation. He went for Bailey, Bailey got his off first. Whats the big deal.


It was illegal, thats why he got a penalty. The elbow was up? what are you on? he pushes him in the back.

I can only assume you're blind as well as terminally stupid then. I also assume you've never played? Because if you had you'd know it's easy to use the shoulder and arm in a shot. Just like Bailey did.


No need for any other of the 20+ players to react either, was there? Are you saying approaching a player and getting punched is worthy of a sending off?




Yes, that was clearly just a push.

Indeed. Putting a 'shot' on with your shoulder is also called a 'tackle'.

Im saying getting dropped before you get a punch off isnt a defence for escalating a situation the way O'donnell did. As an aside what did you expect Bailey to do. Stand there and wait for O'donnell to connect? And you are right, there was no need for the 20+ players to involve themselves, but then it was just a bit of handbags. Its not really something to get stressed about.

glad you now see it.
