I tried to break his leg

Deliberate ... Luke's tackle.

NEW ZEALAND hooker Issac Luke has admitted he deliberately tried to break cousin Rangi Chase's leg during the Four Nations.
Luke returned to Sydney this week after a Four Nations campaign in Britain that was as much a personal disaster for him as it was for the Kiwis, who failed to make the final.
The South Sydney star came under fire for not only his cannonball-style tackling technique but also for the leg wrench he inflicted on England's New Zealand-born playmaker Chase last weekend. He was suspended for two matches.

Luke made the stunning admission yesterday it was Chase's decision to switch allegiance from New Zealand to England that pushed him over the edge.
''I just saw red,'' Luke said. ''A lot of the legends that played in the black and white jersey, they wanted blood. I know Rubes [assistant coach Ruben Wiki] wanted blood.
''I guess that's the mentality us young ones have taken on board. We had a talk the night before about what the jersey meant and that must have come out.
''When you come up against your family you want to outplay them. I didn't outplay him. I tried to break his leg. It was the wrong thing to do.
''Now I see that; at the time I didn't. After the game I said sorry. He said it stays on the field.''
He has since apologised to Chase, a junior league teammate from Taranaki who was seen in the Kiwis' dressing room afterwards, and regrets the moment of madness that could have put his cousin on crutches.
''I've got to try and control my aggression rather than try to break everyone. I'm regretting it but I can't take it back. I need to wipe all that stuff out of my game,'' Luke said.

It shows the passion rightly or wrongly, its what happens when someone turns their back on their country.

Well how about next time try playing the game with some heart instead of playing it dirty you little scum bag. Luke has heaped 100x more disgrace on the Kiwi jersey through his on field scumary than Chase ever did by choosing to play for England.

Did we see Heighno or Reed copping such treatment from the Aussies? No dickhead, we didnt.
