    @SouthernMann ok, he is a real talent, watched him carve up at senior level when only 17, my opinion is an All Black in the making, hopefully this year, no hard feelings, all just opinions, shake hands., and go the Highlanders,

    @george33 can you at least try an answer the questions before telling everyone else to move on?

        @george33 George you're all good mate, it's just puzzling why would Jamie Joe allow 1 of his top 2 backs to leave halfway through his contract? This isn't Laidlaw letting his 6th choice loosie TK Howden leave early

                  Because the Chiefs canceled the loan deal

                      A few things can be true here:

                      • Tangitau signed a contract to play for the Highlanders.
                      • He has quietly been harbouring a desire to head back to the Blues.
                      • The departure of Telea opens up a better spot for him in the Blues squad.
                      • JJ and Highlanders supporters naturally want him to stay.

                      But, regardless of the strength of your sources, george, to simply argue in the face of the bare-faced fact - AS REPORTED BY THE HIGHLANDERS - that he signed a two-year contract does you or your credibility absolute no favours. As sloppy as the Highlanders comms/media work can be, they aren't making a mistake like that in their own press release.

                          In fairness because you don’t actually answer questions, you make statements, then spend the rest of the time diverting by making comments about knowing secrets the rest of us don’t

                            Because it only counts when the Highlanders grab a good player. That the proper teams want back. It is fine when we do what we are meant to do and sign shit players.

                            JRK will go back to the Blues eventually. Tele'a won't be isn't good enough. Good players can break their contracts. The Landers can't break the contract of shit players though.
