It did look a bit like one of Skerretts routine challenges , but they were ok werent they troll

Sorry Gronk, but if that's a shoulder charge then Rangi's shoulder is in a different place to mine. If first contact was with the shoulder it was certainly followed a fraction of a second later by something bonier (elbow or forearm is hard to tell) which was delivered with follow-through. Very poor IMO. Disciplinary will be looking at it I'm sure.

What I can't believe is that when we all see that either in slow mo or normal speed, it looks really bad, and when Chase looks down at him afterwards certainly doesn't help, but what puzzles me is, where was Thaler? How come it was not pulled up, was he not watching the game, in the case of Sam Moa, it looked bad, it was bad, and the officials saw it, Chase's was worse, and I can't believe not 1 official picked it up.

As much as i think Chase is a quality player that challenge was down right disgraceful, how anybody can even say he went in with his shoulder is beyond me, he clearly went looking to take his head off !!
And then just the way he looked down at him afterwards was like he was making sure he wasnt getting back up

utter crap just big hit, shoulder charge!! timed to perfection should have done it in the first ten not once the game had gone!!!

Ohh Cronk will like you...

Where is Cronk by the way, appears to have gone missing

Skool innit

he may have a thing called a job!! its what us grown up's do!! to pay tax to keep u on here all day!!

What a beautifully simplistic view of the working man.

They are all simple on here Matt.

How am I trolling? Its a debate about "that challenge" and I have wrote my opinion you complete and utter moron.

Summed him up in one!

Wasn't the segregation more for our protection from your fans, consequently the reason most Cas fans didn't bother to attend? The pitch invasion at the end with several fans trying to get to us suggested my suspicion was correct.

I remember a game against Warrington a few years ago at Cas, televised, where Gareth Carvell took one of our props out with an elbow (perhaps Jacko??). For a good 2 or 3 minutes the game was stopped while our guys head was re-attached. Meanwhile the whole crowd held its breath waiting for Thaler to either send him off with a straight red or a cowardly yellow or even worse to just put 'incident on report'.........Only to see Thaler wave play on without any form of dscipline at all. Thaler is a joke when it comes to incidents like this!!

When i first saw it on television i commented on how bad it was , i couldn't believe that no-one commented on it....

It was obvious where the game was heading when he gave Fev the penalty after a blatantly high shot and grapple tackle on McGoldrick. Actually it was obvious where the game was going when the 5 metre rule was reintroduced.

Oh please - more sour grapes here than Sainsbury's fruit and veg section on a Sunday arvo.

Im afraid to say your golden boy's in a lot of trouble, it was a shocking attempt at a tackle. I don't buy this mistimed argument because of the look on his face after. He went in to hurt him and didn't miss.


You don't get you jaw broken in TWO PLACES from contact with the shoulder.

Yep, my soon to be 45% tax rate has to pay for the education/dole of these idiots



Good to see one of the highest tax rates in the world is being spent well, eh?

I agree with what you say, bad challenge by Chase, but your last comment springs to mind an incident a season or 2 ago, Johnny Walker on Luke Burgess?

The scenes at BV suggest not.

I knew you would mention that.

His jaw was only broken in one place. Right down the middle.

Of course, Matt. Because you were patently there on that day. Thought not.

Have a word with Feisal - he'll sort that for you.
