Former Man of Steel and England International back on the market. Would you fancy him at Leeds on a short term deal if you got him on a decent contract?

err no thanks.

Only if he comes as part of a package deal which would include Gareth Hock, Tim Street and Charles Manson.

of course not.The last thing we need right now is a selfish individual in the headless chicken mode, but i guess we will be linked to anyone and everyone right now, comes with the territory of being a big club at the bottom of the league.

Would still be less hated and deemed less dirty than Ryan Bailey...

Surely he has to be worth a punt on. Just until the end of the season. We can only improve so why not take a gamble

No way.

On the back of Uncle Gary's e-mail it would be jaw dropping stuff if we signed Chase.

A guy who was MOS and England international just a few years ago to now not lasting more than few months at a Championship club.....no thanks. Both Cas and Salford look better TEAMS since he departed even if he could give you a few fancy showboat passes.

Pah!

I never bought into any of the hype surrounding Ryan Bailey. He was neither particularly dirty nor TMFMISL. He was merely a product of an unspectacular SL era of sanitised mediocrity.

Craig Izzard put in more hits and threw more meaningful punches in just one home game against Widnes than Ryan Bailey did throughout his entire career.

Remember that game, I thought Izzard was going to put Joe Grima in the South Stand at one point !! Bailey is a pussycat, no comparison with him and the Leeds and fearsome Widnes packs back in the day

fair comment, but todays players wouldn't get away with that if they tried it on with all the cameras etc.., you would be looking at double figure match bans for some of the head cases back then if they were running around doing what they did now

well yes that is true enough. I think most of us,if we are been honest,would love a return to the ' old days' . I'm not condoning out and out thuggery, but that Widnes pack scared the living daylights out of me and I was in the safety of the Southstand ! Tamati,Sorensen, Grima,Koloto etc. I feel today's game is a pale imitation and after nearly 50 years watching the game I am gradually losing interest sadly

NRL is so annoying with it at the minute, running in from 30 yards away...to grab someone's shirt or ruffle their hair.

Bailey was a solid prop who did his carries and his defence and had a knack of winning penalties in the tackle. He also managed to stay relatively fit - which as we are now seeing is a real benefit. All the other stuff around him was at best silly, at worst, well you know the word.
