Hey-up..... The glamour boys are back in town!!!!

That was my point, Sherlock.

Yes and he got banned for it. That's the point which the poster was getting at. But its Leeds and likelihood is that Hock will get another ban for breathing on a Leeds player.

Read all the posts before replying and you would actually comprehend what the posts were going on about.

just for the record,, does anyone ever see bailey running towards HOCK when theres trouble..i cant seem to remeber...??? isnt it usally sam he goes for??,,, i may be wrong,, i dunno..

I'm afraid they're the facts. As I said in my next post Peacock makes more high shots than Bailey, but then you don't notice that because you like Peacock, presumably because he projects a different image. Bailey goes out to antagonise and irritate, that's his game, like it or not. It's very effective.

You could go on every Super League board and find people spouting all sorts of stuff about Tomkins (and prior to him leaving his brother as well), but that doesn't necessarily make it true, so I'm not sure of the relevance of that particular point.

Bailey has elements of his game that are unsavoury, but the fact is that we love having him in our side and so would you if he was a Wigan player. Every team has one. Lauaki is a penalty waiting to happen and dishes out his fair share of cheap shots himself. I dare say it won't stop you backing him to the hilt should any criticism come his way though.

Ooops sorry i seem to of taken Advantage of the £1.98 a pint in Wetherspoons at lunchtime and jumped in with both feet ..

To be honest, I hope Bailey is cleared to play against Manly. See how he goes against a NRL pack. I'd be surprised if he's even cited by Red Hall, given the close association between the RFL and Gary Hetherington.

Just watched the game on TV. There's an amusing moment when it kicks off between McIIorum and Haraki. Hock runs in to break up the fight as do other players. Hock realises Ablett is next to him in the scuffle and gives him a swift poke with the elbow, then the players have to get between them.

A peacemaker he isn't...

Well if he is cleared to play, he will be luckier than Jeff Lima was for us prior to the WCC last season.

With it being Leeds though I'm sure there will be no issue.

Bailey comes across as a bit of an idiot, niggly as all heck. Fans from every other club seem to believe that the only reason he hasn't been regularly beaten to a pulp (as he's such a cowardly lion) is that somehow its impossible for other teams' 'hard men' to get to him as he runs away. That is comedy gold. Willie Mason found Fielden alright - as could any forward individually get to any other if they want to.

Fielden squared up to Mason, he didnt run away. I have yet to see Bailey square up to anyone above 5'6" or anyone above the age of 20.

He is a niggly idiot but when it gets tough he doesnt stand to face the music he runs off and stands behind Rob Burrow. He gives it the big un to people who he thinks he can bully or people who he thinks wont hit back. Ive not seen him give any poop to anybody who is likely to chin him.

We all know that despite his massive talent, Sam is a niggly ass at time.... And, everybody tells us so. Bailey has less talent, but is no less niggly, and a coward, all tell you this, so maybe you should listen a little...

Whenever he gets involved in anything iffy, he spends the next 10 minutes running decoy lines. He's a soft-ar*e.

Bailey is a coward, too many players get sucked into his petty antics.
