It was a great try, time certain people got of Ryan's back, when he is the blue and amber he gives a 100 percent, Don't care about alleged event in bars, the important word is alleged. He is Ryan Bailey and he doe what he wants.

Keep it up Ryan

Internet rumours are well cool and should be taken well seriously

I this is just a rare incident I wouldn't like to think things are going back to the 1980s drinking club.

Gary Schofield and Jim Fallon like this.

So nobody actually knows for sure if the incident was ever reported to the club? If the club took no action and the incident was serious enough, why not go straight to the police? Or why not the papers - I'm sure they'd love nothing more than splashing a big headline about Bailey.

Eh? I hope it's not one of the membership.

As regards to the try, it's currently being looked into. We just can't get the VHS working at the moment but from what we've heard it's a bad 'un.

I've been shocked by a disturbing trend amongst the Headingley Branch of wearing non-regulation coloured boots. I believe this gimmicky fad, no doubt initiated by one of them fancy dan backs, has even spread to such distinguished members as Messrs Peacock & Leuluai.

Don't they realise that they're role models for young up and coming forrad's?

I've still never forgiven Paul Anderson *spit* for kicking that conversion. That happens then just 8 years later Sam Burgess leaves for t'other code. Co-incidence?

Away from his try...which i'm still attempting to clean myself up over, was just a big stint and match overall. Played 65 minutes.....good in collision, ran over a few and bossed the tackling, I presume high tackle count. With JP resting up in the 2nd half, he seemed to enjoy the added responsibility. The try (which showed great turn of pace and support play, great bust from Delaney too) was the cherry on the top.

Media were told on Friday that Bailey was ill,but Mac said he was not ill he was not selected.

Now I don't like negative rumours but they're coming out of camp of a possible dismissal. If true its not great in his testimonial season. However it may all be rubbish

Given Hardaker's previous misdemeanours the sacking of Bailey could be considered harsh, though in Bailey's case it's the sheer frequency of delinquent acts, most of which may be considered minor when assessed in isolation. I'm led to believe that if the coach had got his way, both players would have been shown the door quite some time ago.

THe way I see it is that Leeds are a fairly forgiving club. They stood by Bailey when he had his troubles. There have been rumours of other issues dotted across his career, and it seems that he does attract a bit of bother. If he leaves Leeds it will be because he has crossed a line once too often.

Regarding Hardaker, I think it would have been harsh to bin him, for something that went off on England camp, and also for his first offense. He made a public apology, and promised to come back stronger, which I think he has done. The Hardaker of this season is certainly a better player than in previous years.
