While i dont agree with some fellow leeds fans who seem to think that bailey is a great player who others are scared of he isnt as bad as some make out, he is a good squad prop but the problem will come when he moves to a lesser club and has to be no1 prop at the club, something i dont think he can do.

As for chris feather, that guy had the physical attributes to be a world beater, but had the heart of a pea, and was rubbish

Good point - best start saving up for next years shirt with Baily's name on eh.

I don't think mason was given a fair chance at Cas.
I don't want a thug like bailey at cas, he would be a penalty nightmare for us imho.

and we don't have anyone as big as Rob Burrow for him to hide behind

While i understand we could do with a prop forward who is aggressive Bailey wouldn't be the answer,id rather hope we could find a player from down under in the mould of Lauaki or Fa'asavalu

Havent you got any big lumps in the Academy side who could make the step up, or are they a few years off yet?

None that are ready to be sl regulars, the two forwards that are nearest are ollie holmes a second rower and jon davies a loose forward. Both have made there sl debuts this year and looked pretty good, hopefully plenty more game time this season and next.

so you need a stop gap till they are ready. If you do go down under hope it is a quality player and not just someone just on a holiday! ( think all clubs have had there shere of these)

Agreed, though as the number of overseas players has dropped the quality has generally improved.

WHAT?


are you saying that you're happy with sherwin?


the only quality he has brought to your town is that the bar takings are well up!

On the flip side, that Rangi Chase aint a bad player.
