Now, unless I'm mistaken, and they're actually talking about Bailey, your entire point would be complete b*llocks!





Doesn't matter if it's Bailey or not, if someone's gotten away with something, it'll get a long discussion! Radford didn't get away with it, which is why no-one is talking about him.

Erm, that was a different incident, so your point is complete b*llocks. If Ablett was the player being tackled in this instance, Radford wouldn't have launced a load of punches at him, therefore there would be no discussion.

Thanks that was my point.



How many brawls/handbags have we seen over the season and how many of those result in a mass discussion on here? Not many. This is all because its SL's most hated player.

He is disliked because he offers nothing other than thuggery to the game, im not sure about some of you tards in Leeds but i found when i played the best way to gain ones feet was to place a hand down and stand up, if i wanted to milk a penalty i'd fall back down again. It never crossed my mind to lever my self up using my elbows on someones head in rapid succession, im not even sure it is possible to stand up in this manner!



The man is a waste of fresh air as are the RFL, who will no doubt again ignore Foul play by a Leeds player.

Why are people comparing it to the wellens incident. Does anyone honestly believe that it was not a red card to radford?

Yes myself,

Eddie Hemmings

Barrie Mac

Terry O Connor

Robbie Paul

Iestyn Harris

Jamie Peacock (in a round about way)

Rich Agar



Just to name a few!!!!

Stop being stupid people, Bailey is a perfectly legitimate player, it is just all the opposition fans, journalists and players who have built up the Pantomime Villain mistique surrounding him, causing reiterated overreactions over nothing.



You can't possibly assume his involvement in the more thuggish situations on rugby pitches over the last few years to mean that he ever causes them, in fact it is always the fault of the other player.



Whilst we are on this wild goose chase, kicking out to the face and knocking a man out, or smashing a forearm into the face of a defenceless player are nowhere near the offences of attempting to block a kick by jumping or making contact with a player just as the ball leaves his hands. The evidence backs this up. Let it go, the officials have spoken.

And why is that ?



Maybe it's because he is a thug and he seems to not be able to get through a game without doing something beyond the acceptable , but strangely he seems untouchable when going up in front of the disciplinary



As I have said on other threads , some club officials have far too much influence at the RFL IMO

Why do you not think it was a red card? is punching not illegal?

Yes but not a red card offence.

Elbowing players is also an offence but like the Radford decision Ian Smith got it wrong

He wasn't on about Radford's reaction, he was on about everyone on here's reaction. 15 pages because it was about Bailey? Err... no. 15 pages because it was an unpunished incident, just like Carl Ablett. You can pretend it's because poor incident Bailey all you like, but it's not.

The mere fact anyone uses the word 'hate' about a player says it all. Childish beyond belief.
