RL in England really is a joke with this decision, he's not got a hope in hell to become a NZ international so he picks England.
NZ and Au are laughing at us we really are joke.

| Quote GEvans75="GEvans75"Chase is New Zealand born and bred, (aye bro oh yea) that's his favourite 4 words.
I live in Auckland and I know passionate RL supporters who have never heard of him, seriously Chase isn't that good.
I find this embarrassing Chase is an average player who would't get a look in over here.
England have we become that desperate?'"
This thread isnt 'Have a pop at Rangi Chase'
Your completely wrong to call chase him an average player. Im obviously going to be biased because im a Castleford fan - but every Superleague club would jump at the chance o have Rangi Chase on their books. Your obviously someone making judgements on the 4 games youve watched on Sky this year. You have to be a little more than 'Average' to win the Albert Goldthorpe Medal and be nominated for Man of Steel.
Back on topic, his inclusion is a joke and we should really be concentrating on bringing our own English youngsters through the ranks. I seem to remember the same situation happening with Willie Manu a couple of years ago?
Fact is, if his playing style wasnt so similar to Benji Marshal, He'd be in the New Zealand squad right now. |

Assuming you're fishing, there was a similar rumble of objection when he got in the training squad last year. |

I kinda dont agree with it, but other sports do it and Oz and NZ have been at it for ages so if you cant beat them, join them.
One positive is that IF it makes us more competetive, it will only raise the profile of the game. We'd get more media coverage if we got to the final that if we didnt

Widdop is gash? The same stand off who helped take his side to the minor premiership?
Lomax isn't as good as Cronk but that's irrelevant. It's not about winning next month it's about developing our young players. |

I'm completely right. Chase is nothing special, and seriously don't believe the hype that big clubs are interested in him because they are not, the biggest clubs in Super League Warrington, Wigan, Leeds and Saints are not interested in him and nobody in the NRL is interested, he's at his level a big fish in a tiny pond. |

You're completely wrong to suggest Chase is an average player. |

Does your comment indicate you didn’t watch his last few games at no 6 for Storm? The pundits on Channel nine and Foxsports were very impressed with his performances in fact Ray Warren and Peter Stirling likened him to some of the GB halves of the past |

How the hell do you know who are & aren't interested in signing Chase? |
