Complete rubbish I'm afraid. It was a high shot and out of character for Bailey (contrary to what many of you would have yourselves believe). But 2 or 3 minutes later Bailey made a beeline for Lauaki, while carrying two other Wigan players, and got a penalty out of him, because Lauaki was so riled up.

Unfortunately for you Lauaki will give away countless penalties like that for you this season, just like he did for Hull. Bailey on the other hand, will earn far more penalties than he gives away.

Leeds were doing their general, spoiling for a fight all game, that they seem to do every time they play Wigan. It was good to see the Wigan players mostly didn't take the bait.

hauraki throwing punches, ablett eye gouging, ablett generally looking for a fight, lee smith diving in feet/knees first after the try was scored, bailey grappling, griffins swinging arm, I'm sure brent webb had a go a couple of times too.

Typical leeds though.

In the next couple of sets after the incident he was in the centre/second row position in attack. He waited to let the heat die down as he often does.

I keep hearing this 'out of character' business about Bailey every single week. As Saddened pointed out on the VT he'll probably be cleared for the 15,000th time at the disciplinary this week due to his 'previos good record'.

Did he headbutt anymore of our u20's players after the game?

Like I say a total low life.

Leuluai and Griffin were on the field at the time, so Bailey was more than likely supposed to be in the 2nd row position. We were low on orthodox 2nd rowers as Hauraki and Ablett were forced in to the centres.

You'll more than likely find that Peacock makes more high shots than Bailey, plenty more. I struggle to remember the last time I saw Bailey do it, as his tackling technique is good. That's not to deny that he has a side to his game that isn't popular, but high shots are not usually part of it.

It was strange of him to grab Tomkins' face, but it wasn't a gouge at all.

Correct. No doubt he was trying to wind him up, because it was Tomkins, but there's absolutely nothing in this.

Well he should be banned but he won't.

take a look on u tube i think youll find Paul Scullthorpe gave him his cumuppance

Correct me if I'm wrong, but didn't the Wire player testify to say Hock pulled away when his contact was with the eyes, and that he didn't apply pressure to them?

A ban was totally right for any contact with the eyes, but if Ablett has put his hand/fingers on someone else's eyes then he needs banning too. As I said earlier though, I shan't hold my breath.

Fair play for pointing these out. It was a rough tough game and I didn't think either side were paticularly out of order, no surprise to see a load of bitching and moaning about Leeds on here though, whilst conveniently skipping over anything Wigan might have done.

Thats a shock, on the Wigan board, well my my!!... Perhaps you could go to the Leeds board and talk about what a misunderstood angel Mr Bailey is....

Leeds tried every trick in the book, but thankfully for us, Gaz Hock put himself about to warn the beggars off. MM put himself about too, mind, isn't he from Leeds ?

Yes he is and he always has a good game against us. Turning into a nice old school number 9 IMO. Nice aggression and tough as old boots, but not unskillful either.

Have you only ever been to 1 Rugby League game ?

Every clubs fans in the RL complain about Bailey and his cheap shot tactics. Just go on their boards and see what they think about Bailey.

Or maybe your Baileys Dad. Now he is an 'hardcase' after watching him attack an armed robber on video.

The same Hock who nearly gouged Ben Harissons eyes out last season????
