I'm sure though to a small section of their reserve team following he is a 'crowd pleaser'.

He's an enigma wrapped up in a conundrum smothered in marmite - he really does divide opinion.

For me he was the right player in 2003, if he's all that's on offer now then Ricky Bibey's enhanced contract should be posted imediately

Oh i agree Rickey deserves a bigger contract, anyway back to Korki and the fact that he's the best

You guys are so fickle. Last season Ricky Bibey was worse than s...
and all of a sudden after 3 or 4 half decent games he's a star! God help us all.

Not to everyone he wasn't just those that don't understand the game

Not every prop in the game can be a block buster, every team needs one of those that just works away at the opposition and wears them down, he's ours, got to say as well that if the runners backed him up a bit more he's got a great pair of hands for a prop, if those that lauded Scully for his off loading and ball work took a bit more notice of what Bibey does they might see that he is on par with him, the problem is that we don't play a game that allows us to take advantage of good off loading props.

I certainly wasn't, and if you would care to go back through my post (if you can be bothered) I can back that up. I have always rated Bibey within his own limitations as have a fair few others. It's the word limitations that counts.

I misread that comment as:

and it took me back to an experience I once had when playing at Wakefield and these two girls . . . . . actually I'd better keep that one to myself!

agree with a lot of the sentiment but from my point of view there was a chunk of last season when bibey wasn't actually doing what we agree he is good at. he was not laying any real platform, being dominated in the tackle and he was missing too many tackles. thankfully this season he appears to be back doing what he was in most of his first season and the first part of last year (when admittedly the whole squad was playing well)
