What happened on friday wasn't as dramatic as this as 00:34. One of the best dives I've ever seen anyone take on a football pitch...

You appear to have Bailey mixed up with Lee Radford

No he isn't

Radford would be hitting a player while they arnt looking AND while they are on the floor with no chance to retaliate

I have to say it was worth a ban from what I've seen. Bailey actively pushes out with his hands at the ref. Regardless of the reason, you simply can't do that. Three matches may be a bit OTT, but the RFL is obviously trying to send a strong message to all players.

I agree that it seems harsh, but it sends the correct message out about conduct towards referees, when in recent times the standards have slipped a little

Re: Bailey & Webb Charged : Wed Mar 14, 2012 8:50 am  

The maximum penalty of 3 matches is obviously a warning message for future incidents. IMO seems a very OTT reaction. Bailey shouldn't have 'pushed' him (the contact I've seen seems very minimal) and Silverwood shouldn't have been in the way.

The annoyance is how this ban compares to others for high shots etc. Just seems silly. Even more when techniques like DDT's are awarded just as a penalty, reviewed and not punsihed. Logic seems to have been left behind.

Bailey will have to go away, gnash his teeth for a few weeks and crack on.

I was going to post something similar. It may only be a shove and Silverwoods fault, but if he was given a telling off at Red HAll, whats next a Di CAnio situation or GAz Hock from a couple of years ago?

I wonder what would have happened if BAiley tackled and prevented the try? Or just tackled the player at the same time taking Silverwood out at the same tme?

Shoe-in for mass feckwitt hysteria thread of the week!

Apart from a few rational exceptions.

The most feckwitted man in super league can't do what he likes then.
