He wouldnt have been picked 5 times to play in the grand final if this was the case would he. We would have either signed someone else, or play on of the other props we have.

If there is its probably the taste of a champions victory, but as I live in Sydney i wouldn't know

Total Guff

yea you're right.... he's brilliant..... I hope wire sign him for next season.

Maybe not 15, but there are a fair few better than him yes. But Bailey isnt a James Graham, nobody has pretend he is. Bailey is a rotation prop. He does the job of a rotation prop. His game fits perfectly with what you would want from a rotation prop. He certainly isnt the best or among the best props in the country, but is certainly among the best 3rd/4th rotation props in the country.

He's a bit young and a bit british for Wire to be looking at him.

I wouldn't worry about it happening mate.... he wouldn't get anywhere near our starting 17

You might have a better chance of not cholking if you did!

Sorry wigan mods I will try to get your thread back on track again. I think lauaki is gonna have to turn things around in a big way to make your first 17.

I have noticed your packs relative aversion to Grand Final winners.

Good reply. Nice one.

Grand final participants would be a start.

TA told you how it is! That's why your post was guff. Where has anyone said bailey is the best meter maker of defensive prop in SL? Bailey is a important cog in a team that is good at winning championships.

What do you think Lauaki will bring to Wigan? I think he will struggle to get a game if you squad stays fit.

If we can get him fit and install the right mentality, he'll give us a new option like Lauatiti did for you, a new dimension, an attacking, running, skillful forward. Im convinced that unless Wigan see huge potential in him we wouldn't have signed him on a 3 year deal.

By May he will be a fans favourite and all the nay sayers will be all over him like he was the second coming, just like they have done with others over the years.
