For those claiming racism, last season Hull FC fans voted Mark Calderwood for our player of the season. Last time I checked, he's black too.

I'd hope that the headbutt attempt gets noticed when the dc review the game footage.

Current thoughts - Mago out or get running up them plantations, get fit or get rid. Maybe a back up halfback, someone with a bit of experience on a short term deal. Big tall strong running second rower, like a McMeekin or Sironen type back rower.:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_20333.gif



Radford should have been sent to the bin and so should Bailey.

This is Rugby League not tiddlywinks, a bit of biff spices the game up, after their ten mins were up seeing them go at each other for the rest of the game would have been worth the ticket price alone.

On a side note Bailey deserved it, he shouldn't have been elbowing Radford plus he is a class 1 gobe.

What immortal hand or eye, Dare frame thy fearful symmetry?:38546.gif



Honestly, how can people actually compare Bailey hitting Radford on the top of his head with the inside of his arm to Radford getting up and winging him 4 times as he laid on the floor?!
If every player reacted like that to a tackled player tried to shake out of the tackle, there would be 100 fights a game!
Also most people seem to be forgetting that as Radford was sent off he stayed on the pitch offering Bailey out!
Bailey should have probably been binned for trying to continue the fight as well but saying Radford's wasn't a red card is preposterous!

Bailey = foul play = penalty
Radford = violent conduct = off

kcab sfrawdder Luck is a combination of preparation and opportunity Just to avoid confusion Starbug is the username of Steven Pike SOMEBODY SAID that it couldn’t be done But he with a chuckle replied That “maybe it couldn’t,” but he would be one Who wouldn’t say so till he’d tried. So he buckled right in with the trace of a grin On his face. If he worried he hid it. He started to sing as he tackled the thing That couldn’t be done, and he did it!:9005.jpg

Since when has elbowing somebody in the head been an acceptable response to being tackled ?

It wasn't the ' inside of his arm ' , it was his elbow

It wasn't an elbow to the head. It was a cuffing to the elbow's punch.
Every player in the league flaps about similarly to Bailey did, it doesn't give the player tackling them the right to get up and lay in to them as they lay defenceless on the floor!

Quote: TonyGee "Radford should have been sent off, It was the correct decision.

If the two players were squaring up and punches had been thrown then the red card would not have been shown but Radford attacked a man on the floor who could not defend himself. Thats a straight red card.

But, Bailey was throwing the elbow in and knew exactly what he was doing, he has been getting away with it for years and this time he got what he had coming. When it happened i would imagine 90% of the Rugby watching public probably uttered the words " its about time ".

The ref was right, And Radford is more popular because of what he did.'"

Spot on post! Radford was quite rightly sent off, i mean if you don't think that was a sending off, what exactly have you got to do?
Having said that, i enjoyed every bit of seeing somebody smacking the hell out of bailey. Hopefully we'll seem him do the same to Cockayne next week.

Elbowing is obviously part of the game now, like when Tomkins dropped on Myler with the elbow ages after Myler scored.

Would bet £10 that Bailey started gobbing off as soon as there was space betweem him and Radford, and he knew that nothing could happen in retaliation.

well considering it should have only been 10 minutes, i look forward to Bailey knocking 7 shades out of Tomkins next week, swinging four unanswered punches whilst Tomkins is defenceless on the floor, it would likely take Tomkins out of the game, Bailey takes ten minutes........Jackpot

Then in the GF we can see Kylie swing four punches at a prone Leon Pryce, take him out of the game, lose Kylie for 10minutes and we can say hello to 4 in a row............

after all any other response would be totally over the top apparently

Given the way Leeds play the game , both those scenario's are quite likely to happen

Bailey - sin bin / 1 match ban
Radford - red card / Sending off sufficent

Penalty to Hull, Bailey the first offender

indeed the fact they are so good means Leon Pryce is likely to go missing and 4 in a row is likely to happen

The only shame was, Radford didnt get more punches in to justify the lengthly ban he is going to recieve. Chuck the 2 in a boxing ring somewhere, And let him batter him again.
