The touch judge came on to report the incident!! There is no need to throw the water bottle off the field when the trainer is still on.

The man is a *bleep*, always has been always will be. Have a look at some of the posts referring to what his fellow professionals and even a former referee says about him.

I don't really care about that, although I am 100% confident it is all rubbish anyway and completely made up by fans.

But I was referring to the overtop ridiculous post you made referring to the water bottle. All players throw the bottles over the side when enough fluid is taken if no assistant is there.

whislst i agree with fozzard raising his arm why does every leeds fine justify the actions by bringing up another teams actions.bailey is a disgrace and needs banning brfore he hurts someone and thats from a rugby league fan in general not just saints

Hey kids, has anyone seen Ryan Bailey?
[iall together[/i
He's behind you!!!

I had to get my translator out for this one, but i got the gist of it.

What does he do that could hurt someone?

If he is a disgrace then why dont the RFL have him infront of the panel every week?

This is a silly thread.

Saints fans see him as a panto villain

Leeds fans see him as some sort of cult hero.

The truth is somewhere in the middle. He is an average prop, who can occasionally allow the blood to rush to his head. He plays with a good amount of aggression and tends to find himself winding opposition fans up.

TBF, I saw very little wrong with the hit on Roby. It was no worse than many a shot put in by Hooper or the King over the years.

Fozzard? I'm not sure, apparently he raises his elbow everytime he takes the ball in, but in a career spanning pretty much the entire of super league, I cannot recall him being sent off, banned or injuring anyone through foul play.

I'm sure Bailey is a very similar case, just wearing a different cloured shirt

Bailey is a steady SL player who has been a permanent fixture in a very successful era. He has been selected week in week out by Darryl Powell, Tony Smith and Brian McClennan. He gets on with his job and has spent very little time banned. He made an error of judgement back in 2003 when apparently going to help a young lady who was being assaulted over a mobile phone.

As I say, he's a steady SL player. He doesnt break any pots and he doesnt break peoples noses (despite what some would have you believe) but I cannot believe the peopel who castigate Bailey do not castigate Leo Latu when what he did to Brooke pennington was far far worse than Bailey has ever done.

Oh, and Lawrie, I can embarrass you further if you like but I think you've done a good job of it yourself.

Not only does he raise his arm,he usually sports a traffic cone on it...









HIYA ROB not a saints fan..

No we don't, It's just that opposition fans are obsessed with him.

Actually, i didn't think of that one. He was hurt by a combination of his own actions and Ryans though.

I was thinking more hot and spicy chicken wings, but hey ho!

Great thread.

So all as bad as you make Bailey out to be then.

No further response necessary.
