Absolutely no difference to Chase sitting in the stand making a gesture everytime a Bulls player committed an offence in all honesty.

It may well be distasteful and two wrongs don't make a right but Chase was caught on camera a few times "encouraging" the ref to make a decision. Who is to say that the Bulls player was not just getting in a wee bit of retaliation?

Sour grapes which is what we always get after a win against either of the two Wakefield clubs tbh

In fairness I was one of the few Cas fans that said Chase deserved to be banned, and we would gain nothing from Scruton getting banned. I just think the game, as a whole, needs to address the problem we have at the moment with the number of playersn having to leave the field with head injuries. Last week we had a player stop breathing, it won't be long before something worse happens. Obviously, this is my opinion and others are free to have their own!

Whether Chase was dealt with harshly or not is an entirely diff issue. Scruton ctaches him late but was arguably commited to the tackle. Had it not been late it would have been fine. It should have been a penalty in my opinion.

Last week a player stopped breathing after a pretty blatant foul that struck him in the head. It should have been more than four tackles for that as it was a cheap shot.

Chase possibly got two games as a result of media attention but that was a foul none the less.

Just watched the Scruton tackle again, nothing wrong at all, shoulder to shoulder, committed to the tackle.

What crap Phil Clarke talks saying saying it was similar to the Catalan one last week,that one was a shot to the head a fortnight after Salford man had passed the ball

Thought it was a 50/50 call, if a penalty had been given I wouldn't have complained, no more than that though. As aways incidents look worse in slow motion, plus with the angle of the players I'm not 100% certain that Scruton could even see that the ball had been released. A massive fuss about nothing.

Start by getting Chase to keep his elbows down then! Maybe, if you are so strongly opposed to these dangerous tackles, you should post your disgust every time Chase does one of his headshots. You should contact e club and the RFL to complain about him. It might not win you many friends on the Cas boards, but at least you will be able to feel you are doing your bit to stamp it out.

If it had been penalised I would have disagreed but accepted it, to be honest. At the end of the day, a big bloke running flat out can't pull up on a sixpence...or even a two pence piece and despite what anyone says Scruton didn't catch the head.

Maybe we either make tackling illegal or stop telling ball carriers to leave it until the tackler is 'on them' before passing the ball - that'll certainly end the problem, even if it kills the game...

Wasting your time. Honest debate is dead on RL forums. Very few people can see past their own colours. It's a shame really, we're headed down the same path as football.

Fans take up pre-determined, partisan positions shock - read all about it?

Sorry not Bulliacs post. The chump before him.

Unfortunately, as I am not Ian Millward or any of the Cas coaching staff I am pretty powerless to change the way Chase tackles. However, if you read my previous posts (or Casforum) you will see my posts about Chase's "tackling" technique, he has got away with more than he should too. I was sat about 10m directly to the side of the Hardaker tackle and I said at the time, before seeing any replays, that he would be looking at 4-5 games. I don't know if my opinions 'win friends' on the Castleford boards, many of the posters (like on here) cannot seem to see past their club colours even when cold, hard evidence slaps them in the face!
I don't need to feel like I'm doing my bit to "stamp out" these kind of tackles, that is up to the RFL (and I don't have any influence there unfortunately!).

How am I a chump?
