Similar to Ricky Bibey then with his 2 GF winners rings. Maybe we should sign him too to give our pack that quality edge. Chris Hill doesn't have anything like the medals Bailey has got but I know which one is the better player and person.
And I'd have Chris Hill over Bailey.....but Hill is 1st choice prop at Wire, just like Peacock was at Leeds, and much like Walmsley is at Saints.
This is the big problem with the 'anti-Bailey' brigade that they try compare him to 1st choice props. He isn't that, he's 3rd/4th choice prop who can do a job when your starters go off. At Leeds even fickle fans caved in to the criticism coming from over clubs to criticise his every move. Fact is, as an attacking prop, he's doesn't deliver enough and could easily do more. Defensively his numbers have always been very good. Hell even last year at Cas he only managed 5 games but produced 109 tackles with only 3 misses.....I'm sorry but they're good numbers regardless of his 'reputation'.
