Hopefully both get what they deserve, doesn't help the clubs sinned against however not gonna help Salford going forward either.

Aww bless, you enjoying the half term break little un?

Stood in the South stand it was hard too suss exactly what had happened, at various points in the first half McIlorum was looking for a fight and I hoped Paterson might have obliged, for the intensity of the game I didn't think it as that dirty.

I'm not a fan of the NRL no punch rule, there's too much hand bags at 10 paces over there, just let grown men have a rumble and bin anyone who over steps the mark.

just seen it on super league show and it is a seriously house tackle....

Chase will get, and deserve, a lengthy ban for that tackle. We'd be in uproar if someone did that to one of our players. Dangerous and stupid.

Chase deserves all he gets for that, it was a career ender if ever I've seen one. Incredibly stupid and something he has in his game.

Griffin getting cited though? come on there was nothing in it, as long as it's only a one game ban can cover and have Dobson/Locke who can take over the kicking duties.

When Rangi played for us at Cas he badly injured a Featherstone player so from seeing the cannonball tackle on Ferres he should be out for easily 8 weeks. There is no excuse for what he did and the cannonball tackle should be outlawed.

It was a bad tackle, but 8 games seems very excessive. I have no doubt he will pick up a lengthy ban, I just hope it's a reasonable one too.

I can see him getting the full 8 games here to be honest. There's no need for him to go in there and put that pressure on his ankle. Cynical play.

All teams are coached to put one in round the legs. The incident as usual is being blown out of all proportion. The damage was down because at the same time Chase came in Sau was in the process of pushing him in the other direction. I doubt whether Chase knew that Sau was going to push backwards. If you watch them practice this in the warm they always pull the player forward. I see it as a risky technique gone wrong and hence worth a ban or 3 to 4 but I don't go along with the melt down response of some.

It appeared to me that both feet were on the floor when the initial contact was made by Chase. The unfortunate damage seemed to be caused by Chase and S'au forcefully pushing Ferres in opposite directions - S'au high and Chase low. The question is how does one player know what the other is going to do? - Push or pull? You could question why Chase came in later but aren't players coached to tackle players so they face their own line to slow down the ptb? I'm more surprised S'au pushed him in the direction he did because that would have allowed a quicker ptb.

Here here, well said.

RFL had chase on 3 charges for the same offence over the weekend, 2 have been dropped. He will get at least 6, but would like to see 12 - it has no place in our game

How do you know Mr Chase would like to see 12?
