Looks like you got the last game out of him. Retired according to Salford's rlofficial websiterl

Shame for Phil and for Salford, hopefully you can use the Quota spot and the cap space to bring in someone else.

Gutted for him, he is genuinely one of the nicest blokes i've ever met. If he wants to stay in England is he worth a punt for a coaching role in our youth set up?

Will always be remembered for............(the do i look like Phil Bailey thread).

The best thread that has ever been on RLFANS.com ever.

A shame for him. Always a cracking professional when he was here.

That's a pity. Good professional; you'd do well to keep him on in some sort of coaching role, if he wants to.

Good solid pro was phil! Done a very good job for us, will be remembered for that last minute try in the corner away at leeds for me!

Such a shame, top bloke.

Get him signed up to the coaching team!

Gutted for him! I wonder if Salford would give him work as a coach or something? Obviously we don't need him. He would probably pass on alot of what he was taught last year. I'm not saying all players make good coaches but I think he could do a job at Salford while whats his face isn't around.

Very sad news, top bloke, excellent professional.

Was Baileys injury the same that Pat Richards has now?

His injury problems certainly started when he picked up an Achilles injury. Not sure if that's the same injury that's forced him to retire or whether he's picked up more injuries afterwards like Vaealiki, but it seems that was the injury that hampered him the most.

He seemed very well respected in his time at the club and i'd have no problems if they did take him onto the coaching staff.

I'd take him as a coach at Wigan.

Get him under the Madge regime and we could potentially have found Wane’s number 2 when Madge leaves.
