Why do people always judge Bibey on breaking tackles, since when was that the sole requirement of a prop. JT and John Glancy never broke a tackle in their careers but were both invaluable players. Bibey is a big unit and saps the opposition defence, runs the ball in regular, makes very few errors and plays the ball quickly - job done.
Kear does not play Bibey out of love or because there is no one else, he plays him because he does a specific job.

I've tried explaining this to so many people but they just won't have it! If some had a more than basic ides of the game then they would understand why he is played, Bibey also has a neat short passing game and a pretty decent step for a big lad, for me Bibey offers much more than Bibb who just seems to be trundling along at the minute, reminding me a bit of Chris Feather. Kyle has got time on his side and when others are back maybe a rest from the first team will do him good.
