If we lose against the Warriors (not gonna happen!!!!)
will Des let Jamie have another crack at 5/8?

 

[Dan]

nope give Bailey about 5 rounds to get going. Without Stewart we are missing the most potent part of our attack, who is bailey meant to offload to and put through gaps?

I saw similar post and reports quite a few years ago, relating to a certain five eighth named Jye Mullane. I hope that the outcome is not similar. 😉

(Or the patrons at Brookvale Hotel and Maccas will need to have umbrellas!!!)

same posts last year with Jamie Lyon as well

Baileys defence is far closer to lyon than mullane.

Made the 2nd most tackles last week from memory 28 and missed 1.

He needs to be given a decent crack at forming combinations

if thats true, then he is no weak-link in defence, and in fact that may suit Manly more than is apparent at the current time.

Who was he paired w/ last season (& which comp)?

Bailey played in Lock and in 5/8 for NewCastle with Scotty Duro (or however you spell it) I think

 

[Cameron]

des can only try him there for awhile
if he doesnt work at 5/8 move him to lock hes too good a player not to be playin first grade

if we had a centre to cover jamie
id love this scrum base

Lyon
Orford
Bailey

3 kickers and 3 blokes who can create something
