Manchester evening news stated Rangi Chase has been linked with Leigh. Is this for real? He has been seen around Leigh lately.

Hugely talented player, but very inconsistent - and doesn't appear to settle anywhere.

Very good player but it would be iffy.

He has definitely had discussions with Derek Beaumont about it. Obviously it would be dependent on securing Super League status and whether or not DB's patience with Ryan Brierley has run thin.

Wonder how long his patience with Rangi would last? As for the SL status, well that is beginning to look a longer and longer shot now.

We are a team at Leigh and Rangi is not a team player! It would be inviting potential trouble into what appears to be a Happy Ship!

I wouldn't want him at Leigh,I'm not disputing his class as a player.but to have complete disregard for club rules for me shows he has another side to him off the field.

Not one for Leigh IMO.

Are Leigh in a position to turn away international Class? Personally I wouldn't take him on due to his attitude but wouldn't but to disappointed if turned up.

Everyone said that about Gareth Hock and we all know what a good signing Gareth has been, as for Chase being seen at the LSV recently ,so has Andy Gregory ,maybe Derek is after a new half back pairing for next season.

According to the news, Rangi has been suspended !

I now realise this news is a couple of days old. Doh!

The word "Team" and "Ryan Brierley" what ever next. The player who throws his arms if the ball is played the opposite direction to him, the player who more often than not doesn't get involved in congratulating the try scorer. Let him have his Superleague move, be moved to a full back and be back in the championship within 12 months.

I think its simple to look at the games in the qualifiers to look at the players who have turned up on the big occasion (as all these games are) Miller @ Wakefield, Chase @ Salford, Gaskell @ Bradford Brown @ Widnes. Our pairing has looked distinctly average (Championship Level). Would not be surprised if this is an area that is addressed when the transfer period re-opens. We need super league experience in 6 and 7 if we are to crack it.

And this is no way against Ridyard his level is championship and age is no longer on his side, great servant to the club, great lad but sometimes its time to move on.

I'm not sure about when you say they have turned up on the big occasion. Most of them are very inconsistant. Although I agree we do need SL experience @ 6 & 7 to match the SL outfits,but at this present time we have to go with what we have.

I don't know what you're getting at, but perhaps you should wait until Leigh have played Halifax, Bradford and Sheffield before you slate your current half-backs. I also don't understand how you can suggest that thus far in the qualifiers Chase, Gaskell and Brown have all shown up in big games. Chase has had one average game (Wakefield), one excellent game (Leigh) and one poor game (Bradford). With regards to Gaskell, he did nothing in the time he was on the pitch against Wakefield and didn't play in their win over us. Similarly with Brown, Widnes struggled for 70 minutes at Halifax and were beaten by KR last time around too.

Gaskell was only on the field for 8 mins v Wakefield and i don't think we had the ball in that period so be fair on the guy
