Rangi was in Freeport this afternoon.

For what its worth I think that the Cas and Leeds camp have known all along that Rangi would play, as the basis of the nosey parker article was a post on a forum where a leeds fan said to a cas fan he heard Rangi had to go back to oz and wouldn't play the next day nosey parker printed it.

Nosey parker bases his articles on internet forum gossip and just maybe the players have got a bit sick of him spreading rumor and gossip and decided to play along and say nothing even hauraki playing along. Gareth Ellis' father was in the paper about a year before ellis left for oz going mad that nosey parker was spreading gossip and rumor about gareth once he had said this nosey parker left gareth alone.

If this whole rangi story turns out to be nothing caused by a lazy journalist maybe Cas and Rangi should threaten some sort of action for defamation of character etc against mr parker.

you would be laughed out of court trying your defamation charge against Nosey Parker after all everyone knows he's nowt more than a gossip merchant
After all he spends most of his time on these forums before posting his newspaper columns

Regarding any action being taken,don't you think that the Tigers would have been aware that it was all a mind games story all along?
even Cas have played along in this silly game

One good thing has come out of it though and that RL has received some publicity in the media this week

To be fair though its not a bad ploy by Cas to keep peddaling the rumour and to be honest I would imagine most clubs would do the same

dave nosey parker may be a gossip mongerer but you cannot go around publishing what ever you please without any basis to the story, hence various libel actions over many years with tabloid news papers.

His story in the sun today claims Nick Fozzard has been interviewed by the sun not a happy bunny cos he was going to sign for quins and they have decided to sign mark bryant instead, well Nick Certainly isn't happy and he has stated on his twitter that he has not been interview by nosey parker or the sun nor has he spoke to quins.

At some point Nosey Parker needs to be hauled over the coals either by the people he writes gossip about or by his editors for never actually getting a story right

Couldn't agree more mate
Although you'd need the player in question to be a bit more indiscreet?

Without Nosey Parker's rumors The Sun newspapers would not have any RL coverage what so ever
