Quote: "How was he once the best prop in the world?'"
Was he though? I think he was hyped up by the likes of matty eliot, stevo and eddie. Not denying he was a good player, but best prop in the world. i don't think so. IMO he was protected and cossetted by refs and in the early years, no-one was allowedto touch him. As for the comment someone made re, all he needs is to wallop bailey, i don't think he can, if he ever could! Think bailey would deck him, in fact all opposition props are queing up to have a pop at him.
