Well, I'll bow to your superior knowledge Bazzington, didn't realise you had personal experience. Seeing as how he didn't give you the good time you were expecting I can understand your dislike.



He really is, putting the toll up on the Humber bridge to three Queens as well, knows no shame.

Don't even get me started on his contribution to global warming and the credit crunch.

Bailey is a very under rated player. He has a great work ethic and is a good "talker". He is excellent at helping at developing young players.

A Wigan poster previously said back row is a position that we (Wigan) are strong in having Farrrel, Tuson, Mossop, Hansen and Joel Tomkins.

Guess what? All those players have benefited from playing alongside Bailey and have learned from him.

My only concerns from an HKR point of view would be that he would be taking up a quota spot, and the Achilles injury he received has and will take it's toll.

Well, since most people seemed underwhelmed with the Bailey signing anyway, chuckle away Willa.

I'd say Bailey was a lot like Mark O'Neil. He didnt come with the greatest UK career from his injured time at Leeds but once here he was a stand out and I dont know one Rovers fan that didnt want him to put pen to paper on another year deal.

I certainly wouldnt mind someone like him coming here even to add to our coaching team which is often overlooked.

quota??? oh yeah i forgot...you dont have one....
