Scales started his career in rugby union with Newcastle Gosforth before switching to rugby league to sign for Leeds in March 1993.[3] He failed to establish a place in the first team, and moved to the Bradford Bulls in 1995.[4] In 1996, he scored a hat trick in the Challenge Cup semi final in a 28–6 victory over former club Leeds.[5] He also scored in the final against St. Helens but the team went on to lose 32–40. He left the club at the end of the 1998's Super League III, and switched back to rugby union to play for Leeds Tykes. He later had a spell playing rugby union in France.
In 2000, he spent a month on trial at Halifax Blue Sox, but made just one first team appearance before being released.[6] He returned to rugby union to play for Sedgley Park.
