You're totally right about Atoni.

His inability to make an impact is a mystery to me. Looks every bit like a modern day prop who should really be a right old handful.

I have everything cross he comes good.

What a bloody mess of our own design we are in!

I wouldn’t trust the judgement of our current BoD or the Coaching staff to identify anything remotely Rugby League related.

It’s alright Carter talking but it’s his decisions over the last few seasons that have left us up a creek

Overall Tanginoa has been very good for us, the reason he probably doesn't appear as effective as in his early days is two main reasons, firstly the quality of squad he is playing in has been declining year on year and his chances to shine have reduced because of it and secondly because of that he is very much a marked man by the opposition. Being one of very few genuine individual attacking threats will be up the top of list in team meeting of who to watch on our team. In a better team with more attacking options he will stand out more. I feel we would miss him if he goes.

And yes he's had a delayed start to this year but can we please get away from this notion that he misses lots of games through injury. Prior to this season since joining in 2019 he had only missed just nine games, 5 through suspension (3 towards the end of last season for the 1 offence) and only FOUR games through injury. He's hardly injury prone.

I agree to a certain extent but I think he has flaws which are fairly significant which can be masked in a team with a better pack.

His strength is obviously his edge running hitting great lines, but he has also struggled in defence and does come up with unforced errors ball in hand.

Like you say it comes down to who he is playing with.

Some teams can probably accept and cover that with other players who can pick up that slack.

I don’t think the current squad we have can.

and despite being names in the Dream Team as a 2nd row our numbskull coach insisted on playing him in the front row for a season and a half

Lineham out, (some guy called) French in.....
Thought you'd know that agent FIL....

I take it then that you have been Mr. Perfect so far in life........

To be fair if he didn't have deficiencies in his game he wouldn't have been playing for us in the first place! Or super league in general to be honest. It's just my opinion but for me hard work alone won't keep us up, we need quality as well and he is one of a precious few players we have with the ability to be a game changer with a rampaging run or big hit. So if we are to swap him then it has to be with someone who makes a discernable difference to the team and is noticably better in their position than what we already have. I await any wheeling and dealing with interest.

There were rumours of Patrick Mago from Wigan. Would be the big damaging prop we need potentially. If he’s available.

Wigan are wanting a second row so would make sense from their point of view i guess.

No but I'm transparent about my failings and I learn from them.

For me it makes sense swapping Mago got Tanginoa. They are after an edge second rower after Bateman has gone, we seriously need abit of grunt up forward. How Tanginoa has played the last 2 years I’m not too fussed. He can also be a liability in defence, which will be better masked at Wigan

Good point. There are a few options but I would say Warrington, Leigh or Wigan are the most likely.

They are out in force. at the moment - one win and you won't see them for dust.

You make out like people must support every decision the club make. Otherwise there not proper fans etc. What you fail to realise is the majority of the people who you are often so quick to dismiss actually want the best for the club.

Do you know what I hope the club win 10 on the trot.

But I'm entitled to express concern, anger and frustration at the current state of affairs.
