Sounds like a bit of a loose merkin...

"In 2011, at Southport, Queensland, Magistrate Court Chase pleaded guilty to a charge of causing Grevious Bodily Harm and was sentenced to two years imprisonment, suspended.
In June 2012, he was suspended indefinitely after an apparent breach of club discipline on the weekend of 24th June."

...don't know if Doust and Price want him back if they're not going near Lui and fired Marketo.

Anyways, his attack looks alright in that vid. Wouldn't mind seeing some of his defence.

He was well behaved when with us, I guess.

He is a "triangle", and Doust mentioned that's where we were looking. And technically, he is an International :p

I'm curious though - why would visa difficulties prevent him moving from Castleford to Hull?

I'm guessing the FIRE post above yours. The viza would allow him to play for Cas tigers, and to continue playing for them, but the visa would have to be moddified to allow him to go to Hull - and with his conviction he would not now be given one.

Anybody see the Exiles game from the other year? Rangi ripped the English team apart, he was awesome.

He would be an excellant purchase for us ... If we can (or should) accept his conviction and the negative press.

Mixed feelings.

Can tear a team a new one on his day. But I'm always cynical when there's a alot of hype about an ESL player; IMO Leeds would only scrape into the NRL finals. He's a massive grub as well.

Still, I'd have him. He's only 26, & the late 20's is usually when players are at their peak.

ahhh... good ol rangers...

was happy when he signed for us, and a little sad when he left..

felt we never saw the best of a bloke who was described as a benji marshall clone with bulk..

for his flashes of brilliance, he had many predictable moments that the opposition would shut down...

would i have him back?

yes..


felt his combo with soward was good, but never got the space it deserved...

if he wants to come back to aus, give him a 1 year incentive contract.. whats the worst that could happen?


however.. if he's looking for a retirement deal where he earns the big bucks, i don't think he'd be worth the risk..

Two year deal done!!!! Looks like it'll be the soward n chase combo next year!!! Judging by his YouTube clip he brings an attacking game we'v been missing. Let the good times roll

I work with a relative of his, he said it's a done deal. But for some reason it will not be announced till early next week, not sure the reasoning behind this, but apparently it's done. Welcome on board rangi...

I'm not going to get my hopes up until I hear Doust announce it - far too many 'confirmed' signings on here that are nonsense. But if true, Id be very happy

Incorrect. There will in fact be a press conference next Friday

I hope there is more consistency to his game now,not flashy one game crap the next 2 games.If he and Soward work a good understanding we could be a bloody good attacking team to watch .
