Heard from a decent source today chase signing for us and buderus will be staying.

Would be good news on two fronts if true, but I will await something official before I'm convinced.

Where would chase play?

Based on McDermott's selections ....who knows.

Great news if true....looks like Hardaker might need to wait a little longer to get the SO spot.

At the moment Chase is signing for you, Wigan, Warrington and about ten NRL clubs.
All despite recently signing a new contact at Cas to 2015.

Sorry but I'll believe this one when I see it.

All probably immaterial as he will struggle to obtain a visa following his conviction

Norfolk N Chance

My source reckoned he was having a medical at kirkstall today!

Only chance of that is if he was having his nads checked in a mobile portakabin in the Clover car park.

Clover...???? - showing your age there a bit mate.

Clover . I crashed my Triumph Dolomite outside there .

One too many in the Barcelona was it sir?

Would explain the southstand development falling through after all we all know Buderus is the highest paid player in the history of the game and as a big signing Chase would at least want parity

Ahrr - the Barcy, now that does bring back memories.

Elida Gibbs, anyone?

Barcelona pffft

Star & Garter with the revolving doors and Big Tony the bouncer.

Barcelon/Star & Garter = Leeds Jazz Club sunday evenings

The Dave Lee Sound..... bumped into him gigging in a bar in Benidorm years later still rocking

Jazz ? Niiiiiice ![/i

Did you spend more than you had to ... To get it sorted ?

Any more news on your quote that the Rhinos are signing Rangi Chase and Danny Buderus is staying with us for 2012?
I hope you're right but I heard last night that DH has more or less given a commitment to Buderus that he will be released from his contract so he can return to the Knights.
With Chase the potential problem for any English club is the granting of a new visa after his recent court case. If he stays with the Tigers fine but there could be a strong possibility of refusal for another visa which is required if he changes clubs. The same visa principle applied to Hauraki when he joined us from the Crusaders and look how long that took and there were no problems! I've been told therefore that if Chase leaves Cas it will be to a NRL club. This means all the talk of Chase being signed by Warington is rubbish as well.
I hope I'm wrong with the above comments regarding the Rhinos but if you know better let us know! Gary H has made some signings and we are just waiting to be told who?

How long would Chase's current visa last?
If he leaves the country to go home to the Antipodes after this season won't he need a new visa to return? In which event his status is the same regardless of who will play for next year, ie he'll have to apply for a new one.
Or would that only apply if he changes his employer?

I think a new visa applies only if Chase changes his employer. If the Rhinos are interested no doubt they will have checked all this out!
