He certainly picked up the rings but unfortunately his lack of security got some of them sold down the local pawn shop in Leeds.

And not as bad as the smack in the face that Myler gave Hardacre which wasnt penalised before Atkins try?

It is a pity that the incident took so many of our players out of the game because it would have given us an overlap & we might have got a consolation try although i don't think it would have changed the outcome.

Judging by the posters name it's more to do with his location!!!!!

Sorry for deviating off thread, but thanks for ruining our night, a number of us waked fans were fortunate to be stuck in the middle of the Leeds end last night, needless to say we went anticipating winding the whinos up, shame you didn't help out!!!!!

Bailey is a pantomime villain not half as bad as people make out, he has stood up to other forwards plenty of times. He gets under people's skin. If that had been any other Leeds player I doubt all the left side of your team would have gone looking for him.

That looked to be Tony Smith's view.



Bailey is an interesting character. Some fans dismiss him as an animal, while confusingly others claim he's a coward.



Take a look at his disciplinary record though and it's pretty damn good. Where he infuriates opponents and fans is that he niggles opponents so that they lose focus or give away penalties. That's a pretty useful feature to have in your side.



Bottom line is that he's played in 7 of the last 9 Grand Finals and picked up a winners ring from 6 of them, whilst being a regular selection for Daryl Powell, Tony Smith, Brian McClennan and Brian McDermott. That suggests he's seen as an asset by some pretty good coaches and contributed to a very successful side over a number of years.

Yeah, i remember him standing up to Paul Rauhihi..... then realised it was someone his own size and then ran away. Quite a 'Holy Grail' moment..... the Monty Python lads would be proud.



As for him being not half as bad as people make out..... tell that to the Wigan Academy lad he glassed after they beat you at Wembley last year. I'm pretty sure he doesn't agree.

Sorry, but if you're claiming that as a useful feature to have in your side then you really are deluded.

He did the same with Gaz Carvell at Wembley (after trying to intimodate Chriss Hill and failing on that one as well).

as far as im concerned just a thug in a rugby shirt is bailey

I also remember him putting Adrian Morley flat on his back a few years back. Hardly a small half back is he.



Regarding the Wigan academy I am yet to see any evidence to believe this even happened. Certainly if he had glassed someone I am sure he would have been arrested. Just seems to be part of the myth surrounding bailey

Good job your opinion doesn't matter then, otherwise he wouldn't have had the successful career that he has had

...and this thread is the reason why there's a billion page thread about him on the Leeds board. If you can find one Leeds fan that actually rates Bailey ahead of say Peacock then you've found a certifiable idiot. He's a panto villain who wouldn't draw an ounce of the attention he does if Leeds weren't successful.

This used to be on well known video sharing website.

Tried to find it -could n't

Any takers .
