I think Whitbread has kicked on since he left us and added some impact to his game maybe being in a better environment at KR than he was at Trinity.
I’m expecting a lot of the new lads to kick on next year in SL as they are in the main new to a full time environment coming to the club from part time. They will have had a year to develop in that full time environment and it is one that is superior to what we had under Carters time at the club.'"
Never mind Whitbread, how good has Tangianoa been at KR, the bloke has been devastating in a number of games.

He has managed to go injury free though unlike with us last season
My opinion is he is a liability in defence and drops too much ball I never really rated him

| I think they both have benefitted from the fact that the current KR squad is somewhat of an upgrade on what they had last season.

Yes I agree, last time I saw him play he made three handling errors and all pretty basic.

I won't say I don't rate him. He's just a luxury player. His ball running is excellent and his defence is very strong if they run at him.
He isn't good positionally or with his ball handling.
Rovers can carry him for his positives. We can't.

He's devastating with ball in hand.

When he keeps hold of it he is too inconsistent

No less than he was when he played second row for us before Chester screwed that up.
In fact watching him for KR he played better for us when he first came over getting MOTM every week. He’s just rediscovering that now.
All KR have done is simply play him in his best and natural position. Something most Trinity fans were calling for and couldn’t fathom why. Who’s have thought it.

Yes, that certainly didn't help his cause but even when he was playing in the SR you never knew which Tanginoa you were going to get on the day, I remember Poaching dropping him to the reserves for. Few weeks after a few bad performances.
Someone summed it up perfectly above I thought, he's a luxury player, if your team is defensively good enough to back up his handling errors, then on a good day he's fantastic to have In your team but I think there is reason you don't see the likes of Wigan take players like this and if/when they do on the very odd occasion, you usually see a very different player to the oncw they have bedded in.

| Clearly the reason he was playing prop is that his defensive flaws are not exposed there.
Even at Rovers you can see teams scoring tries down his side when he doesn't slide with his centre and halfback.

He certainly has his faults. Though he wasn’t up for the fight to get Trinity back into SL this season and chose KR over Trinity. That’s a shame but I thought after a full season injured he would’ve wanted to help the club back up.

Yep, agree with all that, both DP and ME spoke with him about staying but he chose to go, much as I liked him, he's gone and forgotten now.
HKR still don't convince me they are the real deal yet though.
On a side note Toby Boothroyd told us today,5 weeks for his hammy.

Yeah I listened to interview. Shame for the lad but he looks to have a lot of potential and I’m sure he will start to show it more when over injury.
