But what is the player worth? That would depend on his ability, form and attitude. No-one doubts his ability, but recently his form and attitude has done nothing but lower his value. The Ropati incident and then being disciplined by his club (regardless of what happened) on top of not playing that well and suddenly he's worth a lot less. Then if he makes it clear he wants to move but isn't allowed to, how will that affect his form and so his value?

As long as its not a derisory sum then Cas would be well advised to take the much needed cash.

Hull DC (Drinking Culture) from now on?

I thought Gentle would be the type of coach who would want to stay away from these types of players.

Is this why Hull KR sign so many Aussies? To work behind the bars serving half of the FC first team?

Thought he was on his way to Wigan as a direct replacement for Finch and to link up with Matty Smith.



Didnt see him joining the Black & Whites tbh. Who will he replace Horne or Seymour?

Wigan quashed the reports a few weeks ago IIRC. We're now reportedly after Ben Hornby or Jamie Soward, with Hornby the more likely option.

Horne's moving to fullback for next season, so whomever we sign will be playing at 6.





Chase is a fantastic player and would improve nearly any side in the league as there aren't many SL halfbacks that are better than him, but his off the field record is a concern. As long as it is made clear to him what is and isn't acceptable, and there are clauses in the contract related to this, then I'm okay. I would give him one chance, and whenever he's in the Black and White (if he did sign) he would get my full support.



I think that this thread is a little premature, though. Might have been worth waiting to see an announcement of somebody signing before making a thread declaring it.



For those saying about Chase and Westerman reuniting, Westerman's been at Hull for a couple of seasons now and has not stepped out of line once. And, if they're such good friends, they're not exactly far away from each other at the moment and just because they play for different clubs doesn't mean that they couldn't meet up in their spare time if they wanted to at the moment.

Pah,these are mere amatuers compared to Lee Crooks and Knocker Norton.

Us Hull fans are used to it.If a player wants a good booze up on his day off so what?

Picked up a Hull Daily Mail on my way out to work and saw the article, showed it to a site manager who is a big FC fan and to my surprise rather than coming over all happy he said '****, he's the last player we need at the moment'. Seems Cas are glad to get rid of him as they were the other players FC got from them.

Of course Cas riding so high they can afford to get rid,at least they have Ellis,a star replacement for Chase if he goes.

Sometimes a player leaving, no matter how good will help a team move on to better things. On his day Chase is a marvellous player, but he seems to have lots of baggage, something that will rear its head eventually.

After the Long /Gleeson fiasco we can manage anything.
