I totally agree.



Just wish he was GB, but he's not, I'd keep him if he reduced his wage, if it is what everyone thinks, his personality is having a great impact on S. Tomkins both on and off the field, trust me





As for the Locker's not being Captain!!

Whatever, I must have heard Locker's scream 5/6 times at the team in teh 1st half, unusual if you ask me, the loss of Hock, as had a huge impact on him, and it's a real shame that he's picked this injury up.

If he was off-quota and on a lower wage I'd say keep Bailey given his positive influence on the development of younger players and his ability to do the honest non-flashy work well. However in the circumstances I think he has to be released for the sake of the club's long term - even without Hock, second row / loose forward is an area of particular depth in the squad and I'd rather Farrell, Mossop and Flanagan get a chance next season as they are the future of the club, not a nearly 30 import.



Falls into the category of Phelps - a decent player, but not the class of import that justifies a quota spot.

Shocking grammar from me! The moral this is never to post when "merry"





The only saving grace in the incident is jonh adding it to his sig. For some reason he stopped short of completing the quote. VISE captain anyone?





Reassuring that it's only my drunken posts that get quoted.





Fortunately you don't have access to my texts which were far worse!

Id like to see Bailey stay if his influence is as great as it appears, its not like we can rely on the likes of Fielden in that department is it.



Id like Phelps to stay as well.



TBH the one id look to release if need be might be Carmont.

Bailey should not stay he is not a good enough player, although I would not complain if he did stay as it would mean he must add real value to the squad off the field for him to earn a new contract.

For that reason I would like to see him given a new deal. IMO he is one of our more consistent players, never does anything spectacular and rarely steps a foot wrong. An un-sung hero IMHO.



It's clear he leads on the pitch verbally but O'Loughlin leads by example and that's why he is captain and should remain so.
