Really? You don't know why?

Playing in a lower division is a bit of a come down but, don't be fooled if you think Rangi has gone to Leigh because they were the only option. He has gone to Leigh because they offered the most cash - the best deal. He could have gone to RU, SL or ARL - most have already got their half's sorted for next year as well as their budgets.

Doesn't the last bit suggest he really didn't have much of a choice.

The OP should know better than to put Championship news or even Leigh news on the blinkered and insular VT. I mean no one has even come up with an original insult yet.

Have you seen the picture of Rangi signing at Leigh ? the guy is a shell of a man,Salford have killed him.Im hopeful Leigh can make him smile again the same as Hock is.

The fact that Marwan and his Salford circus chased Rangi to be the man to lead their club to the domination of Super League
But a short while later they decided to let the mercurial mercenary leave the club without being nothing more than a laughing stock who languished in the lower positions of the division despite their huge outlay

The fact that he has gone to the next SL wannabe pretenders in Leigh says as much about that club that it does the player i'm affraid, I hope that all this outlay pays off because sadly if it doesn't then i can see Leigh suffering the consequences

Maybe then Rangi could steer the Gloucestershire All Golds to promotion

Big Bad Salford.Paid him a load of cash and treated him like a superstar.Must have been Salford that made him cheat on his wife and Salford who made her walk out on him.Salford made him miss training and stay in South of France on the lash at a crucial time of our season letting his team mates and fans down.
Lets get some perspective here.The guy has serious issues away from the playing field.Salford tried hard to help him but the guy has to want the help.
I genuinely wish him all the best and that Leigh can help him sort his head and life out because he is a magician on the field and a pleasure to watch him play the game.

Oh dear is that the best you can do?

Absolutely not.

I would have you crying for your Mammy 'again' if I really wanted to get going.

& if you would like to return to sanity & endeavour to contribute some intelligent & insightful posts born of a deep understanding & thorough knowledge of the modern game of RL, then please, be my guest.

I would love to receive the benefit of your wisdom.

You could just continue to Troll the site, posting your ill informed & ill considered narratives on Leigh RL & Leigh fans in your quest to appear superior on the internet.

Now run along, there's a good boy.

Because this is such an intelligent and insightful post

Take a look at his profile & all becomes clear.

Why would anyone value the opinion of someone with a profile like that.

Now go see if you can borrow the family brain cell for the day.

While I am on, you are a supporter of which RL Club ?
Just out of interest.

Bearing in mind that the subject is Rangi Chase, the following is the content of Ste100Centurion in the thread:-

Your a fan of the Jihad ...
Your interests are Death & Destruction

You're a Professional Pillock !!!

Not a mention of Chase, no wonder the Leigh page attracts such derision, fortunately he isn't your typical Leigh fan.

A fan of he jihad? You need to watch Gary Tank Commander son and all will become clear

Willzay and Ste100Centurion

cut it out.

Next one to post anything other than about the topic will be taking a break

I'm doubting there was any "Chase for Rangi", but it's very sad to see such a talented player now in the second tier of the game in this hemisphere. People pointing the finger at Salford are clearly wrong, this has everything to do with a young man with a lot of money letting it go to his head - I'm sure the circus surrounding Salford didn't help, and I wonder if he got the support he needed (and probably would have received if he'd have stayed at Cas).

Either way, I hope he turns it around at Leigh. Nobody can doubt the guy's natural ability, if Leigh can manage him to make the most of that and keep his mind on the field, they will have got an outstanding player. It kinda reminds me of when Danny Brough was in the Championship with Cas - that seemed to get him his confidence back and now he's one of the best halves in SL. Hopefully Chase can do something similar.

Brough signed for Cas in 2006 when we were in super league and he was 23. Rangi is 29 and has choose to drop down a league. Wouldn't say they're too familiar at all. Think brough wasn't first choice at Hull and was a young half. Rangi has always been first choice whilst in England and has probably played his best rugby. Broughs best days were ahead of him, rangi's were 4 years ago.

Next season just got a bit harder for us.

Great post, im glad one Cas fan knows Broughy played in the Championship for them..

As for up and coming a year earlier he had won the cup for Hull FC, there are many great comparisons above on why dropping down a division was good for Danny and can be for Rangi.

You should be promoted..You deserve it Reffy..
