Think they are hoping for leniency with RFL?

Leniency no, consistency for sure.

if they had wanted leniency they would have stated that the fine was to be sent to the rugby league foundation to be used in helping fund their respect campaign

It should be a rap on the nuckles from the RFL.

Sam should be available for next week all things being equal

What has Joel said about Bailey?

I think I've missed that...?

That he is only good for cheap shots at smaller players.

It was on the BBC website, but i cant find it now sorry.

I have just posted that pic of churchill on facebook about a hour ago

No chance should Sam get a ban. Briers, Mathers, Myler etc. have all done the same in the past.

Bailey is a bullying thug, a right ehouse.

He always has a go at the small guys like Luke Robinson, Kev Brown and Danny Orr and when they are on the floor or trying to play the ball.

For some strange reason he never seems to have a toe to toe with another prop. When the biff starts he is at the back away from trouble.

Just after Leeds'/Hall's first try, Charnley is in the backfield, and Bailey comes running in to congratulate Hall. Charley is in the way, but takes a couple of steps out of the way. Josh tries to avoid him but Bailey takes another step towards him, and puts the shoulder/elbow into him. This was clearly visible on one of the BBC replays (the view from down in the corner). Again, one of the smallest guys on the field who shows his class by his skills, being bullied by one of the biggest, who shows his "class" by his snide actions both on and off the field.

No ban required. Fine is sufficient. Hopefully he won't do it again.

The hysteria across the boards is quite ridiculous, but before Wigan fans throw too many stones, remember some of your reactions to Danny McGuire last year.
