I think you will find that they all suffer from severe selective memory syndrome.

The Cappers have set up a fund/charity through a bank account to go to Ropati whilst he is on the sidelines. Don't they do injury insurance in Fev ? I think its getting a bit OTT this.

I agree. There is no way anyone should be playing rugby league, either professional or amateur, that does not have some form of insurance that covers them for loss of earnings through injury. As far as I know it's compulsary for amatuer clubs to have insurance.

I thought Ropati was one of the four Fev players who is full-time. If so, he will be getting his wage anyway + fund money + insurance. Seems strange to me.

According to BBC website, Ian Millward says "Rangi Chase was 'extremely upset' after the incident that left Rangi Topati (??) with a broken jaw.

I'm sure we all feel poor Roger's pain at this difficult time for him.

I'd like to see players who injure others with foul play be banned for the length of the injury, and then serve their 3 game ban (or whatever they get) when the player returns. That would cut foul play, poor techniques and general thuggish behaviour.

This may surprise you, but there are people who don't like seeing players get injured, regardless of who they play for. But I don't think for a minute you have that mentality. But then again, the fact that even Cas fans dislike you speaks volumes.

OTT i doubt it , its about looking after your own.Dont know the ins and out of the insurance but im sure it wont pay out too much going by my past experiences.I as well dont like seeing players injured by mindless viloence this includes my own team Fev.

Hardly mindless violence, though, was it.

It was a reckless, bad tackle.
