The good Doctor on twitterAll Rangi Chase discussion here please. Lets keep the forum tidy.

MK probably thought that Leigh would solve his problem but sensibly makes sure that the exit door only opens outwards

I'm sorry, did someone make Mario a forum moderator?

Ignore him, obviously at a loose end now.

Neil I'm more interested in why you got fired and if M.E.N will still cover RL?

Arguments about Mario aside, Marwan's tweet raises a few questions:

A) if he has just been sacked. It means he was still employed by Salford so couldn't have signed for Leigh 8 weeks ago as some on here said was fact!
B) he was released on a free transfer in July, which means NO team signed him else he would be there ( again proving some on here wrong)
C) it seems allowing him to leave for free Salford have had to sack him to get him off the books ( more evidence he hasn't signed for Leigh)

In summary the people on here stating he had signed for Leigh in July are talking rubbish!

To be more specific, JGR it appears you are talking out your derrière on this and other boards!

I think you also might need to consider the possibility that he was granted a release on the proviso that he keeps his mouth shut, unlike Puletua, and that this news is just framing. Conjecture, of course. Perhaps he is unwell and deemed unfit to play; perhaps he did break club rules. No one man is bigger than the club and this relays that message to everyone else too. A damn shame because Rangi is among the most talented and exciting players I've seen in a Red jersey. C'est la vie.

As someone who lived through the Best era, the saga reminds me players like Chase are a delight to watch but pains to manage... thanks to him for those moments when the season ticket seemed a bargain.

Unfortunately far too few and overshadowed by the stupid suspension.

Though had he been playing for one of the top 4 would it have been as harsh? I think not " .......thanks to him for those moments when the season ticket seemed a bargain.'"

As you say,it's been known since July so he's had plenty of time to have done it the informal way.
I think there's a time limit on a disciplinary hearing and the penalty given,so the clock has been ticking.
Let's give the club credit for dealing with it decisively

This is probably a legal thing. Sacking him makes it more difficult for him to demand money at a later date.

Best of luck to the team he signs for eventually.

You keep saying you know, but go on to contradict yourself. He cannot have signed for Leigh (salary cap issues aside) while he was still signed to Salford ( which he was, by your own post until this week when he was sacked)

He may have agreed to sign for Leigh, he may have wanted to, but he didn't/couldn't as he was still signed to Salford. You may be "in the know" unlike me but you are simply wrong on employment law ( which I do know about)

Simply put, if he had signed to Leigh in July as you claim on here and the Leigh board, he is no longer an employee of Salford so how can then sack him(which you admit they did)?

RFL rules I do not know, but I have had plenty of experience of representing people and technically discipliary hearings can go on for years, they don't because the person is being paid so the company involved likes to keep it short.

Also it would be illegal to sack someone for being sick, they would have to prove that the person is "not capabable of completing their job description and you had no other rolls they could do within a reasonable time" and that does not apply to Chase. ( if they did he has a cast iron case at an ET)
