Big hitter Kelepi Tanginoa insists the only place he’s going is upwards with winless Wakefield.
The barnstorming Aussie second-row, 29, hopes to kick-start troubled Trinity’s relegation fight when they face Hull FC on Thursday. It will be only his second game back since recovering from annoying recurring hamstring issues which had sidelined him since February. But there had also been talk that wobbling Wakefield might cash-in on their star forward with circling Super League rivals waiting to pounce.
Ex-Manly ace Tanginoa, under contract until the end of 2024, said: “There was lots of speculation about me. But my only focus is playing my best for Wakefield and trying to get us off bottom. It’s been frustrating for myself, the boys and coaching staff but I’m focused on helping us get away from there.
