They have shown in the recent past they don’t mind stumping up for a transfer fee so I wouldn’t put it past them.

If he wants to go (as I’ve no doubt he will be being offered more money) let him.

He’s a cracking player on his day but his day at the moment is too few and far between.

There are loads of reasons potentially for this including him potentially having his head turns.

No point keeping a player who wants to be somewhere else especially if we can command a fee.

On current form he wouldn’t be too much of a challenge to replace.

I do think we have issues in our second row. The lads we have are all good pros but they are all very similar..apart from Kalepi when he is on form and that is why it would be sad to see him go, but he’s lost his mojo no doubt and a move may be best for both parties.

I agree about our second row having issues and I was having a conversation last week and it was about how our second rows are solid but more defensive players who couldn’t break their way out of a wet paper bag. They are honest pros but it’s painful to see a weapon in Tangonoa cart it up to the big men on the middle when he used to bust more tackles in a single game than Ashurst and Pitts combined over a season.

That’s why I say if we are planning to keep using Tanginoa at prop we may as well sell him and free up the cap space for an actual prop or a position we need some quality in like LF.

Personally I’m not a Kelepi fan, never have been but I get why others are.

He’s nowhere near consistent enough for me. His attack has been off for ages. His defence is to put it mildly suspect.

For me people are seeing the Tanginoa they want to see not the actual one.

Cash and a free quota spot would do me just fine. However I’m in the minority I accept that.

What a do know is Kelepi is not the answer for Warrington.

Was devastating, he’s been in the past tense for a season and a half.

I don’t think it’s as easy as just switching it back on, if he’s lost it he’s lost it.

Sorry but don’t hold with this SR v Prop guff, he’s been equally ineffective at both rather than more effective at one.

I’ve been on his back since the end of last season, I’m on record. I just do not see this devastating player, never did. He’s not a patch on Fifita who’s been a far better player even when injured.

If you go back to end of 2020 he repeatedly got MOTM performances and made the dream team. You don’t do that by being largely ineffective. He was one of the best second rowers in the comp. He used to charge out and put some real bell ringers on in defence too. That was end of 2020 at second row.

Pre season 2021 we were struggling to recruit at prop and he’s played almost every game there since. As you say he has been ineffective but in my opinion he wasn’t ineffective at SR.

The very odd game he has been moved to SR he has played better than at prop but we still haven’t seen anything like the form he showed on arrival. It will take a string of games to get back to that I fear. He may be ruined now unfortunately so I’m with you I’d probably rather see a spot and salary freed up.

If Tanginoa goes to Warrington they’ll play him as a right side second row and use him in much the same way as they used Ben Murdock-Masila. The likes of Williams and Widdop will get the best out of his ability, we’ll see him making busts and tearing holes in defences again.
He’s been mismanaged at Trinity and while it may have been out of a necessity it’s still very poor

Excuses excuses, he's been pee poor that's what he's been. You really must be his agent.

Also, not in the same class as Ben Murdock-Masila, not even close imho.

But that's 2020 and it will be 2023 if/when he plays for Warrington and pushing 30. Also in 2020, there wasn't much competition for MOM was there with half a team missing but I grant you he played well, mainly at prop

He’s been mis managed, that’s evident.
You fail to grasp or wantonly refuse to recognise that playing him out of position has negatively affected his game and destroyed the blokes confidence.

I never suggested he was in the same class as BMM, that’s in your head and no where else.
I said Warrington would look to play him in the same way

I'd hardly say Tanginoa is bang average at prop.
I like him at second row but he isn't perfect there either. We lose some of the defense Ashurst brings.

But if the new prop is anything like ready to play, I'd happily have him coming off the bench into the second row to smash some tired wide defense.

I’d be happy with that too. He’s been away from SR for so long that he would need to find his mojo back there and it wouldn’t be instant. I’d happily see Ashurst and Tanginoa interchange at SR.

To be honest I would say Tangikoa is bang average at prop. He is a strong bloke but that’s relative to who he’s making his drives against. He gets stopped with ease running into opposition forwards through the middle. He would make far more line breaks (like he used to) and metre gains running at the gaps between the centre/second row/halfs. I just think we haven’t being using him correctly.

I used to think he was our best forward but now he’s just solid at best.

Did Tanginoa play in second row against Wires in cup looked to be getting back to form .Will not blame these coaches for putting him as a prop The damage was done by the last Coach .We have signed a new prop so let's hope K T goes back to second row

No I don't, it's only the opinion of you and a few others who are obsessed with this. I think he could play both equally well or badly. However, as a player, he should be happy to play wherever his club tells him to play. There are numerous players at Trinity who play numerous positions, what makes this player so special? He's not that specialist!

That’s the problem because our squad is so thin we use the players available to fill gaps even those that are not suitable. We have the example of Leeds at home where we played two forwards in the centres which did not go too well. I doubt you would play TJ at prop or in the forwards. He is a specialist winger and Tanginoa is a SR, he actually does what you want by covering at prop to the detriment of his own game. The flip side is that he is not used to the best of his ability. I remember you had the same opinion of Fifita who you hoped would go to Catalan because you didn’t think he was given everything to the club.
It is not the players fault that we were light at prop that falls into the club’s domain and hopefully the belated signing of Butler will free up Tanginoa to play where he contributes the most.
