Surprised me how much DP wanted Rangi to stay. Great player but never struck me as being a 'structured team player' that DP seems to go for.
Great to see DP helping Rangi and giving him that confidence boost when he probably needs it most.
The door does swing both ways though and Rangi does need to work hard to repay the faith. I'm sure all will come good.

I always got told by my coach at rugby to stick to the game plan about 75% of game the other do something that he cant coach something no one expects and rangi is perfect at that. You need a player with the x factor who can do something unexpected because while your sticking to the structures the defence will always be wary of him doing something different and might hang back and leave a gap for someone to go through

Game plans are great and obviously form a major part of the game today, the problem is that the majority of the sides in super league follow the same or similar attacking and defensive patterns. The coaching staff drill these patterns into the players and they do become rigid at times, just look how many try's you get off of a loose ball or pass that goes to ground, a kick that bounces funny or a mistake by the opposite side. At these times the structure and patterns go out the window and players look lost and we all say "why did they all stop?" A player that can create and react to these kind of situations is worth his weight in gold as long as he can fit into the structure for the remaining time, I think Rangi can be this man.
