Just because it isn't on the sky footage doesn't mean it didn't happen.
Sky's footage was much shortened because they ran out of time.

"Jon Wilkin and Ryan Bailey have kissed and made up after joining up with the England squad at Loughborough University on Wednesday"

Sky Sports

Well, neither would have had much choice I should imagine. Carrying on a spat while in the England camp isn't in anyone's best interests. I'm quite sure Wilkin will keep his opinion of Bailey to himself and play politics for the good of the international game.

I would still expect Wilkin to throw the odd mis-timed hospital pass to Bailey though in the nations games.

Then IF either player did that, they should be sent home from the squad, regardless of if we win or not! I think matters have been made quite clear to them!

Agree SaintsFan!

Funny that because it was a live broadcast in real time. Looked pretty continuous to me from the final hooter to the interviews on the pitch. From the hooter going there is no evidence that Bailey approached any Saints players whilst celebrating a truely historic victory at the Leeds end.

Sour Grapes me thinks.

Of course when Sinfield is being interviewed the whole of the pitch and every player can still be seen can't they? Are you suggesting that Wilkin and Foster are now lying?

When the final conversion is being lined Bailey is jumping around in full view of all the Saints players who are behind the line. Of course his defence to this will be he was playing to the crowd, but why not wait til the kick had been taken and he had shook hands with the Saints players as is the norm with other players.

Just after Sinfield kicks the last conversion, you can see Wilkin shouting in the direction of the Leeds players. I can only assume this is where the incident occurs.

I can only imagine this is the point where Bailey is seen to "jump around"..............ooohhh there's a song in there somewhere

Wilkin and bailey kiss and make up!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


The pair were involved in a war of words following Bailey's 'in your face' celebrations during Leeds' Grand Final victory over St Helens, which Saints second rower Wilkin called 'embarrassing'.

The duo could soon be team-mates after being named in Steve McNamara's 24-man squad ahead of the Four Nations tournament, but are now on the best of terms after burying the hatchet.

"It's part of sport, isn't it?" said Wilkin. "Personal battles happen, I think it's what makes sport interesting. Passion sometimes does overflow.

"Ryan's form has been fantastic and it's good to have him in the England team. I spoke to him before we came into camp and there are no issues.

"Those rivalries that you have are just signs that people care. I care as much for the St Helens cause as much as Ryan cares for the Leeds cause and that's why we clashed.

"If we can translate that into caring for the England cause, that will be the common bond between us."

And McNamara paid tribute to the duo, adding

The hooter had gone before the conversion so the match was over

At no stage does Bailey approach any Saints Players. He may well have been in their view but he was clearly gesturing to his own fans and not the opposition.

Still Wilkin has now issued a statement and they have both kissed and made up so prehaps we should do the same.....

Not according to James Grahams Twitter......i dont know how to create a link but words along the line of no chance of buring the hatchet and Bailey getting into trouble in the pool and Wilkin throwing him both ends of the rope. Last we need in the England is another feud between Leeds and Saints players. Gonna be hard enough getting anywherfe near the Kiwis and Aussies as it is.

I don't remember James Graham being on twitter. You sure it's not a spoof?

and he is no longer a SL player so who cares what he thinks....
