She comes across as someone who will only be warm, in my eyes, vocal or open if she has any success or is paired up with someone good. Kristina is paired up with John, who's pretty crap, and loads of people expected her to be quite nasty to him or to be quite rude, but in fact that opposite has happened. They have been funny together, she has supported him, she hasn't been harsh on him, and she hasn't been rude.

I haven't seen any of this from Hayley. She hasn't been rude, but at the same time she isn't openly supportive or constructive. She fades into the wallpaper sometimes. If she comes back next year with an even better partner, then I'm sure we would see "the real Hayley" or whatever. But this is the problem. You will never always get the perfect partner.
That's just it. Kristina arguably drew the short straw regarding partners but she's made the best of a bad job and succeeded in creating a warm, genuine partnership with John. Of course we will never know what might have been, but I can't imagine Hayley would have been able to do the same thing, going by what we've seen of her so far.

The true test of an SCD pro dancer may be the way they deal with a partner who's got limited abilities. Again, we'll never know for sure but who knows how Mark might have developed if he'd been paired with somebody else?

Please don't think that I am 'hating' Hayley, she seems like a very sweet and genuine girl. But that's not really enough in my opinion, sorry

I agree.

They wanted Mark as a contestant and Hayley was the only one tall enough to dance with him.

.
Rubbish! Hayley is five eight while Camilla is five nine.

I'm not keen on her because I find the standard of her dancing quite poor compared to the other pro dancers. I don't know her personally so shouldn't comment on her personality, or lack of ... but she doesn't come across on screen terribly well.

Everyone deserves a second chance and yes I would welcome back Hayley next year. With a decent partner she may have a chance of reaching the final.

Hayley is 5'9" - watched her dance on Sunday night - beautiful - as good if not better than any of the others!!

I have to agree with you there....Nicole was outstanding.
World class dancer......she is missed.
Where you been lately - somewhere nice?

Nicole is a world class dancer - but I don't recall her doing anything special with an SCD contestant.

imo Mark and Hayley could have gone further had they received the same latitude as John and Kristina, and if Mark (unlike Andrew) hadn't been saddled with 3 unsuitable dances on the trot.

Yes bring back Hayley - and please give her some exposure in the pro dances still remaining in this year's SCD.

Hayley's dancing was fabulous to the Kelly Jones song on Sunday's show. She shared the stage with the brilliant Lillia, and was in no way overshadowed.

Hayley is an amazing dancer, bring her back next year!!

Good enough to come 6th in US, 19th in Blackpool and 1st in NZ in her first year as a Pro when she was only 17

Oh I'm not 100% on the matter but I would have thought Hayley was about 5'8" and Erin and Camilla both around 5'6"
Yes Hayley was the tallest pro, that is why they had lovely Hayley to dance with the equally lovely Mark

Been watching the Tennis......lol lol.

Just watching Nicole dance with Matthew is worth her weight in gold.

Hayley has not made an impression on me, I like Kristina and Brian but dont miss Hayley at all. Yes she probably is a nice girl but has made no impact on me.

Nicole dancing is far superior to Haley's...IMO

That's the one Autumn.

We often hear how brilliant Lilia is (and she is!).
Hayley was in no way overshadowed.

I'm not really fussed about Hayley either. The other two newbies have both completely outshone her IMO. Brian's been absolutely fab and Kristina's been such a good sport.

Why haven't we seen much of Hayley lately - is it because most of the pros are Latin dancers - why can't we have more ballroom which is much more beautiful and Hayley is definitley one of the best at that - so elegant.
