Hope it (the talk of signing for us) falls through personally and he's made to stay the length of his contract.

I think Chase was always going to leave but by signing a long contract was going secure Cas some serious dollar. I think its all been a bit pre meditated from day one but you cant blame Cas for cashing in on their star assett

I thought that was to do with whether he would be able to get a work permit at another club after his court case. I understood that the general consensus was that any club requiring Chase would sign him prior to the court case presuming (correctly) a guilty version was coming, even if this meant loaning him back to Cas until salary cap space was freed up.

Finch's future is still not decided and he may even retire at the end of the season to take up a media role in Aus. http://www.nrl.com/brett-finch-unsure-on-rugby-league-future/tabid/10874/newsid/68316/default.aspx?utm_source=twitterfeed&utm_medium=twitter

Been told by a SL player that Chase is playing up as Wigan want to take him early but Cas are staying firm and saying no.

Good for them, but its an ass when this happens... Player seem to be able to find ways out of contracts on a seemingly regular basis.

Re: Finch leaving - official : Thu Jun 28, 2012 4:14 pm  

I'm almost certain Wigan wouldn't want a player on the books who was prepared to do that anyway so I can't see it.

A few years ago maybe but not now.

I really hope thats not the case. Cas have done a lot for Chase and do not deserve to be treated like that. They gave him a bumper contract last season which he agreed to and as such deserve a bumper fee if he wishes to go. He cant just change his mind when it suits. I hope, and certainly dont think, that Lenegan would be party to such games.
