Agreed, would be a great addition if he could stay fit. It's ok saying that he's been fine for a while but he hasn't played pro for a while either.

If we have a spare quota place available, then throw some money at Cas and get Rangi Chase. The lad is quality and exactly what we need a running/passing try scoring stand off.

Would agree here.
I'M a big fan of rangi chase and imo he would be a great addition to the squad..

Brilliant player would add so much to our team and just show our intent to be a top team

Love Rangi Chase, but has there ever been any sort of rumour that we'd be in for him other than in a wishful thinking way?

Great comeback. Come on, prove yourself. Give us one real piece of info now that you can come back and hang your hat on in a few weeks time. And we don't want any of these rumours that suddenly become media "wind ups" when they don't happen

No be we can hope haha

But, who else would be available? Saying we do get this quota spot, i couldn't think of a better use!

If we have a bit of money to play ball with then surely he would be near top of wish list!!.
Has proved his ability in SL a constant threat.

Why would Cas want to sell?

More chance of us singing a rangi tang than rangi chase

Help with stadium ?

Good point, especially as they've lost Sherwin.
Have they even replaced him?

Isn't he contracted?

Absolutely, but Chase isn't available. Like saying we could pay Saints for Soliola or Puletua for example.

Even if we paid £1/2m for him it would be a drop in the ocean in terms of the cost of a stadium project.

Do Cas spend full cap though? £150k extra for next year could add good depth to their squad.

I realise that but not sure Cas are that flush with money and have a stadium to pay for

Enough depth to turn them into genuines top 6 contenders?

We won`t sign Rangi Chase.
This forum never ceases to amaze me . People think all Hull FC have to do is call and players will come and sign.Cas would want a decent fee. Chase would want a decent payrise to bought out of a contract.
I don`t think there will be any top class talent coming into the Club until the 2012 season.
As for the halfback situation it will Long and Horne for 2011, get used to it.

You have to go spoil our fun don't you ! Ha

Shy kids get nowt, so be worth trying to buy him than just thinking 'well they won't sell him anyway'.
Whether they would sell him or not still worth enquiring imo.


HFC, i think we are giving our thoughts on who we would like to go for and has nothing to do with clicking fingers and things like that..

They're not far off IMO, a few good acquisitions could really get them there. £150k could do that. Of course i'm being completely speculative about the fee, if i was them i'd want £250k minimum.

Can we just get this right, this is a rumour thread, it's pure (and by no means educated) speculation, nobody is saying we have a god given right to players, or that players should be flattered when we come calling.

Boy! Am I glad you posted this on the 'rumour' thread, otherwise I might have believed you.
