Most of the fans seem to think he's not super league standard - wasn't he the championship full back of the year last year - doesn't say much for the championship then does it - I reckon they have their eyes on another overseas player and can't afford to offer misi a contract. Bit rotten for the lad is all I can say hope if he does come back to us he gets over the snub and proves them wrong!

They'd offered him a contract, he'd signed as far as I'm aware, they've bought him out of it and signed another fullback. The change in coaching staff maybe had something to do with it. I think he could easily play SL but would be delighted if he signed for us again.

Not aware of the full details but hope he's got some compen.

And agree about him playing for us next season.

I wonder if Featherstone will be interested too if they sign Tangi?

No one's ever got that.

It seems the new coach (Sandurcock) is not interested in Misi wants to sign an aussi forward instead - but Wakey might be interested - HKR are apparantly agreeing a Comp package!

Just a rumour I think in the RLE

I dont think Tangi will comeback to just play championship rugby.
