No it's not. It's because he's not English and he's playing his part in ruining our international game. You like to portray yourself as Mr Reasonable, Mr I Am Totally Unbiased, but the only reason you're supporting Chase for England is becasue he's a Castleford player. Nobody is disputing his ability, it's the fact that he should not be playing for England. And when he signs for a bigger club, we will all feel exactly the same.

Nothing to do with him playing for Cas on my part fella. I also supported the selection of Heighington, Reed and if he wanted, Daly Cherry-Evans. Go see on the VT if you don't believe me.

I have no problem with players playing for England if they're good enough and better than what we have. If we have a dearth of players and we're selecting them for selecting sake then that's where I draw the line.

Utter tripe.

Just like the majority of Cas fans with their newfound spirit of cosmopolitan social inclusion, your largesse in respect of national identity is based on the fact that international nomad Rangi Chase, for now at least, plays for Cas. And that's a Fully style FACT, delivered with Gronkesque levels of self assurance.

1. How the hell aren't you banned yet?
2. I don't care where someone was born, if they're good enough and the qualify pick them - always thought it and think the football team should do it too.

Like:

Tonie Carroll, Tony Williams, Karmichael Hunt, Akuila Uate, Michael Jennings, Petero Civoniceva, Willie Tonga, Willie Mason etc?

Sorry but he is a great player but will never be english in my eyes and many others also.Not his fault that the rfl allow this stupid rule bending and it just makes a joke outta the international team.
I would rather us lose with proper english players than with these fake ones.
Bit like Danny B,i supose Cas fans support him playing for England also eh?

1. So in your eyes anyone who wasn't born in the country can NEVER be British even if they had all the appropriate paper work and lived & worked here for most of their working life?

2. I'll support anyone good enough who qualifies to play - I'd love England to have a Chase/Dobson half back combo because that is the best combo available.

Well England Kingston Rovers would attract less than it already does if we fill it with Aussies and Kiwis who weren't good enough for their actual nation.

Bren.

You're talking tripe.

Go read my posts on the VT before commenting. If not, don't comment.

Re: Well done Rangi : Sun Oct 23, 2011 9:42 pm  

Just for Bren (and the others) because I know he wouldn't go and do some research:

Fully on 2nd October re: Daly Cherry-Evans wrote:

Fans always whinge about how small our player pool is. Don't see the problem in enhancing it by nicking them from our rivals'.

Strengthening us whilst weakening them in a way. Seems fair to me

That was posted on 2nd Oct.

Chase announced his switch on 3rd.

Go figure - like I say, I support improving our squad regardless of nationality, as long as they haven't played for another country before or we have a dearth of players in line better than them and there's no need for them to be there.

We lack depth.

Makes sense to add as many players as possible to the English camp.

An international nomad who has played for just one recognised full international team? Hardly nomadic is it?
