Tanginoa injury?

[Mitch]

As far as we all were aware, Kelepi was out of the season right? Well Zorba’s column in today’s MD says otherwise. I thought it was a typo but he goes into some detail about it as you can see. With him potentially back next week!

‘Tanginoa’s recovery from an ACL injury has stunned everyone, with the injury expected to sideline him for the rest of the season’.

 

[Chip and Chase]

interesting. He’d be a welcome addition especially if jake makes origin as expected.

 

[pjayz]

The reports were that he did both an MCL and an ACL. I can’t see how he comes back next week unless it was really only an MCL - similar to Cleary for Penrith.

 

[HappilyManly]

I was thinking last week that Kelepi was the biggest loss for our resurgence.

Would be great to get the grunt back for the last third of our Season

BTW, ZtC is rewriting history as Chez was in the NYC in 2009.😕

Hodko was partnered by Trex in the halves when the Sunshine Coast Sea Eagles won that comp

 

[The Wheel]

Could have a few selection headaches over the next couple of weeks

 

[Stevo]

I wouldnt call them headaches. More like brain freeze.

 

[Heisenberg]

Before his injury his speed and sheer force at hitting the line was insane. Would be a major plus coming off the bench. With a fully fit 17 we can beat anyone anywhere. Hopefully the tide is turning and all the negative press can go suck a maroon coloured pipe. Go Manly!!

 

[Ryan]

This makes me very, very happy

 

[Simonmyers11]

Great news. Hopefully also paeska not too long on sidelines either

 

[Eagles2nv]

Are we sure they didn't mean Paseka?

 

[Disco]

I'm taking this with a pinch of salt, its not Peters to be wrong

 

[Mark from Brisbane]

Can’t be possible, I think he means Paseka, ACL’s are all season ending with about 6-8 months rehab!

 

[MissKate]

Maybe he is on the same 'stuff' the riff are on, promotes miraculously speedy recovery

Oh Christ!!! We will be lined up for another witch hunt over the use of steroids, peptides and voodoo if this is true.

 

[BrendonStarr]

Well if he cant tell the difference between Paseka and Tanginoa he shouldn't be employed.

Paseka - 197cm, 120kg

Tanginoa - 180cm, 104kg

Hopefully the old man speaks the truth and Tanginoa will make a "miracle" return at some stage this year. It would have to go down as the speediest recovery of a season ending injury in the history of the game one would think.

 

[BrendonStarr]

Or the Manly Gods strike again.

 

[SeaEagle007]

Maybe Trent Barrett, has found a batch of Calves Blood that was stashed away. LOL

 

[Ben]

Where we trying to pull the wool over the NRLs eyes with this....?

 

[Midnight Rambler]

So potentially Tanginoa, Lane, & Paseka...to go with Jakey, AFB & Kapow...wow!
