Nottingham. 800 years ago outlaws stole from the rich. Little has changed here

To be fair he must have something that coaches can see, and fans can't. That could be flexability though, and being just about good enough to cover most back positions to a decent standard

He must have, mustn't he. I always thought there was a bit of an X-Factor when he played and his ability to score the odd try would support that.

For Leeds he started 20 from:

Full Back - 13
Wing - 1
Stand Off - 2
Hooker - 3
Loose Forward - 1

In total his Leeds stats were: Played 20 + 33, Tries 21, Goals 3, Points 90

He played in just the three SL Play Off games:

2006 - EPO - Full Back - Warrington - Home - Lost 17 - 18
2007 - QSF - Sub - St Helens - Away - Lost 8 - 10
2008 - QSF - Sub - St Helens - Away - Lost 10 - 38

Ryan Bailey (11/11/83) - The Most Feared Man In Super League

The Most Feared Man In Super League (TMFMISL) * Coined by thebloodbath * Inspired by Bailey *

Tansey does carry a bit of lower league quality about him, that's for sure. He is a utility player, probably because at Leeds he hasn't displayed the quality in the direct positions he has been trialed in. It was always going to be hard for him to get a regular spot at Leeds. But he's the kind of player are vital to a title winning team. Your squad players can't all be world beaters. Fact. And his flexibilty to cover an array of positions is a huge string to his bow. He hasn't played many games in his Leeds career, and he's hardly settled into a role. He's had bad games and better games. He knows where the try line is, doesn't matter how they come about, he seems to get them. He probably represents excellent value for money. He seems to get his head down and get on with things. Future international? No. Handy squad player in retaining titles? Oh yes.

Agreed, it's just the 'how he got a gig in the NRL' that confused me.

Maybe more English players are given the opportunity to join the NRL than we realise. It's just they don't have the balls to make the move.

Maybe so and as I've noted already here you 'can't knock the lad for giving it a go.'

I'm still surprised a NRL club would give a player like Tansey a second glance though.

Could be a case of a player over here, at a high profile club, with talent, who is a good cheap option for the squad. What I think puts many off going to Australia is the money they will earn over there, and what it buys you. Tansey at the start of his career won't have been on much at Leeds, and so could get a bit of a pay rise playing in a better competition

Your job is to say to yourself on a job interview does the hiring manager likes me or not. If you aren't a particular manager's cup of tea, you haven't failed -- you've dodged a bullet.

Just maybe the players from the top SL clubs aren't quite as far behind the normal Aussie players as some on RLfans would suggest.

It says something when a bit part SL can get a start in the NRL.

Yes, Gareth Ellis proves that.

It does for now. Let's see how long it lasts though before getting too carried away with Tansey's NRL record.
