I think this is fantastic by the club. they could have easily dismissed him but no, they want to help him. Not having a go at Widnes but they give him a full time contract, he gets injured, they have money troubles and just drop him like a dead weight. Well done Fax, makes me proud to wear the Blue and White !

Looks good in the press but why even have that interview when Marshall admits himself he hasn't even talked to Tangata. I suppose in that sense he will fit right in with a lot of the young lads at the club.

"They have money troubles and just drop him like a dead weight" - who do you mean by "they" other than the administrators? Hard to see how that decision was in the hands of anyone actually connected with the club, the administrators' primary goal is to achieve the best results possible for the creditors and that's what they have done.

Have Widnes offered him training/rehab facilities whilst he gets back to fitness?

This is the point - who do you mean by "Widnes"? At the time he and the other two were told that they were no longer required, the club to all intents and purposes didn't exist other than in the hands of the administrators. Sunday's game against Fev is cash only because the new organisation doesn't even have a bank account yet.

The guy who has really left Tangata in the lurch had already made his escape from Widnes.

Fair play to Halifax for offering their facilities, although to be honest it's probably also a good pragmatic decision too given he is looking for a club and you'd think there aren't likely to be many full-time clubs willing to offer a contract to him given his current and recent injury status.

To me it's not about Widnes but about Halifax at least making the offer of support that they had no need to do, so good on Fax.
