Bit late for that

Personally I think that the lad will get into trouble where ever he goes in this country as there will always be an idiot who winds him up after a few beers. I just hope it's got nothing to do with the Liam Hood injury.
Having said that Keith I totally agree with you that he needs help before he does something bad to himself or someone else.

Perhaps best not to jump to conclusions on this one given the social media posts of his alleged "victims".
Seems they decided that they could improve their hooligan image by targeting a rugby player on a night out.
By all accounts caught on CCTV and shows 5 men goading, abusing and finally attacking Chase before he decided enough was enough.
His suspension is a result of him putting himself in the situation in the first place. It was a stupid place to be and a stupid time to be there.

I see, then 1 or 2 game suspension should suffice.....

Tend to agree..He's running out of mental health issues along with clubs.

Before people start condemning him for being mental let's wait for the truth... I don't agree with the fact he shouldn't put himself in a position nobody asks to be harassed by 5 blokes wanting too fight you, if your attacked you attack back no matter who you are, not many people will get attacked and walk away

They'll have been a bit slow to act if that's the case. He's been out injured the last two weeks, and Chase played on Friday.

According to love rugby the incident was on Saturday night. So the Hood incident would appear to be something separate...

Not sure it was this last Saturday night

C'mon DUK! Cut to the Chase

Oh dear.

Its a vey disturbing case. Rangi was trying to get away from the thugs. He jumped into the rear of a min bus but a well known nutter jumped in after him. His mates shut the door and blocked Rangi's escape while the thug beat him to a pulp. He also bit lumps out of his face, shoulder and arm so there is no way that he would have played this weekend.

Sounds terrifying..As a player should you put yourself in that situation given your past history? The answer is simply NO.

Just seen a piece where it says he is facing the sack for assaulting someone in a taxi queue after trying to jump in front. Says that the chairman has already spoken to the fella and apologised with a view to sorting things amicably but the man wants it taking further.
