How is Rangi Chase performing? : Sat Apr 18, 2009 9:57 pm  

I live in NZ and was wondering how Rangi Chase was going for Castleford this year?

Doing ok scored quite a few trys now and is really starting to fit it and for a small guy he does not take a backward step to anybody.

rangi is doing well, in both attack and defence. looks like another good acquisition from the st george club, following on from steve robinson and wayne bartrim.

Now he has settled in, he has looked really sharp with the ball. Great footwork and a good dummy causes the defences a fair bit of trouble. Scored afew nice tries and hopefully he'll keep up the good form and continue to improve.

looking great for us on the hard ground, a marvalous step!, unforunately all he seems to do on the wet surface is fall flat on his face

I've been watching Cas for over 20years and I'd say that he looks like being the best no.6 I've ever seen at the club. At the minute, that honour would go to another of your fellow countrymen: Tony Kemp.

Would like to see him partner Goldy in the halves, now that would be a dangerous combination

Where would Sherwin play? For me Shifty is your best option at 7. Chase would probably make a good interchange hooker as he seems to play more for himself with nifty footwork and speed off the mark.

Never been a fan of his, far too inconsistent and not a quick enough thinker for me. Give him time and space and he'll do the business. Against top teams you don't get that. Kicking game all too often wayward, today was a prime example.
