Has he done enough to retain his place for Sunday in your opinion?

Of course he has. As I said earlier, he's had much better games this season. I was only referring to Monday and the use of the stats.



Put's in another defensive effort on Sunday though like Monday, then I will question his starting position.

If he busts down the middle again on Sunday I will be asking the RFL to drug test him!!









On a serious note he does seem to be carrying some form of lower back injury/knock.



He spent every opportunity against Fartown away trying to stretch it out, then he seemed to be doing the same thing on the side line against the Frogs on Monday late on in the game. Maybe a game off would actually benefit him. But against a big Hull pack he may have await another week at least. We can't lose one of the on form props of SL!!!

You're right. Thinking back they have got it wrong.



It was probably only two.

Are you saying Loz has taken more drives than Kirke in Perpignan.

Ryan Bailey's stats have been very poor all season imo. He works pretty hard in defence but his attack is really poor.



As it's Hull next up I will compare him with what Hull's props have done.



Avarage metres per game:



Mark O'Meley: 117.1

Lee Radford: 96.2

Ewan Dowes: 79.3

Peter Cusack: 70.4

Sam Moa: 65.6 (bare in mind he only plays in short bursts and avarages 8 carries per game)

Ryan Bailey: 64.1





Avarage carries per game:



Mark O'Meley: 16.2

Lee Radford : 14.3

Ewan Dowes: 11.7

Peter Cusack: 11.6

Ryan Bailey: 9.5

Sam Moa: 8





Avarage metres per carry:



Sam Moa: 8.2

Mark O'Meley: 7.2

Ewan Dowes: 6.77

Ryan Bailey: 6.74

Lee Radford: 6.72

Peter Cusack: 6.07



So poor work rate in attack, and not all that much impact either.

So to look at the attack in more detail, how does he fair in offloads and tackle busts?



Also what about his defence?



Does that matter for anything?



I bet you love Jamie Thackary. And I notice he's white. Interesting.

Is Sam Moa white?

Skin colour is is irrelevant to me.



Why's it a big deal for you???

Don't bother. I looked at that myself, and Bailey comes nowhere near to ANY of the Hull props stat wise. I had hoped to come back at him with something.



Bailey should not be compared to O'Meley as that is Peacocks job. Good job really as O'Meley beats Bailey hands down in every facet of the stats.



So then I looked at Dowes as more likely comparison. Unfortunately, pretty much same again.

When did I say it was a big deal?
