I'm leaning towards him going back to Newcastle now tbh. Souths Newcastle junior will slot straight in for Guerra
Also that not all young Pasifika players want to play SOO. Pangai played well and dominated at times for Tonga against Australia and England. He is a star player. I reckon this character stuff about Pangai is getting a bit overblown. I think the culture of a club and the coach should play a role in the development of their character.This article about TPJ says a fair bit about his character, seems like he needs to mature a shit load:
NRL great shares Pangai’s telling moment
Penrith Panthers great Greg Alexander has revealed questionable remarks from Tevita Pangai Jr. last year which raised some red flags.www.news.com.au
I think he will end up at the Knights too. Be a good pick up for their squad to squeeze Frizell and Pangai in one yearI'm leaning towards him going back to Newcastle now tbh. Souths Newcastle junior will slot straight in for Guerra
Foran hasn't re-signed yet so all of his $1.2m "according to the kennel" is available and Cogger also hasn't re-signed.With Tolman's coin we still can't do much more then buy a top hooker and a promising young half to go alongside Foran. If we don't re-sign Foran (don't recommend) there's ~400k there.
@Bulldogs09I found this incident linked to him.
Not sure about the results of the investigations.
Tevita Pangai Jr accused of assaulting his partner
The club and Integrity unit are aware of allegations that a Broncos player slapped and manhandled a woman The player can't be named for legal reasons https://twitter.com/ChrisGarry7/status/953538591879081985 https://twitter.com/7NewsBrisbane/status/953538821735493632marathonstadium.com

A BRISBANE Broncos player being investigated by police over whether he assaulted a woman is expected to be able to play in Round 1.
The Courier-Mail can reveal it is 21-year-old prop Tevita Pangai Jr, who is under investigation by police for an alleged assault, after an incident involving his girlfriend Kiki Heineback on Sunday night.
It has been claimed he “slapped and manhandled” Ms Heineback.
An NRL spokesman yesterday confirmed that the NRL Integrity Unit was aware of the matter and would monitor it in conjunction with the Broncos.
It is unlikely Pangai Jr will be stood down while the matter is investigated by police.
Police are yet to lay charges over the matter.
“Police are aware of assault allegations. The matter is being investigated,” a police spokesman said.
Ms Heineback – a 23-year-old who lives in Brisbane – yesterday declined to comment on the incident. She is listed as a personal trainer and gym instructor in Bardon.
The NRL has taken a strong stance on domestic violence issues previously, but unless there are criminal charges, it is unlikely the governing body will become involved in the dispute.
The Broncos open the NRL season against the St George Illawarra Dragons on March 8

the bloke is a grub, reason why the roosters dont want a bar of him and we shouldnt either
I agree 100% mate and so is Pangaithe bloke is a grub, reason why the roosters dont want a bar of him and we shouldnt either
What agenda you moron?So did he get charged for this ? Was 3 years ago and I don’t recall anything about it actually coming out?
Agendas for some that earlier said they where talking about fonau Blake and now act like this is what they meant just shows how full of shit they are.
Anyway to non agenda driven clowns, I don’t recall seeing him sacked/heavily punished for this? Was he actually found guilty?
Perhaps little actual reality to the accusations and nothing come of them and just like the agendas some had thankfully now they are just widely accepted as a poor joke an full of shit.
@Bulldogs09Why did the Broncos sack him/“stand him down” then??? Shopping himself around or also other things we aren’t privy to? What don’t we know about? Things aren’t always as they seem & the last thing the club needs is more drama
Maybe this was a way to free up cap space for a big play at Cam Smith or another big money spine signing. Pangai is a highly talented offensive player but defence can be questionable. In a solid pack with senior leaders I reckon he would go well. In a young Broncos team he has struggled at times. If his character was so questionable why was he in a Broncos leadership group?Why did the Broncos sack him/“stand him down” then??? Shopping himself around or also other things we aren’t privy to? What don’t we know about? Things aren’t always as they seem & the last thing the club needs is more drama
Maybe it was mate but you need decent grounds to terminate a contract alsoMaybe this was a way to free up cap space for a big play at Cam Smith or another big money spine signing.

It was 2018 so only 2 years ago.So did he get charged for this ? Was 3 years ago and I don’t recall anything about it actually coming out?

The fact she didn't testify and it didn't go to court shows that she wasn't going for a payday.Spot on nate dawg. Don’t bother as the agenda will find a new spin.
Steeliz I highly doubt walker was innocent with the fact their was some witness next door or whatever.
This could be similar. Could be another women who went for a pay day... certainly don’t remember the uproar like walkers had.
Again to the point he’s not in trouble for something like this. He’s in trouble for breaching covid rules.
Just like nate said. I think ponies are hitting reset and trying to get a c Smith there to do it.
Would you give up anyone in the squad for him? I would. I dare say broncos would too.
As others have said we have no mongrel, no size, no offloading machine like pangai. He’s had some shocking moment and dumb dumb football. He’s also been an absolute beast.
He’s 24 Jwh, sburgess a bunch of others who player very physical like him have had long stints suspended. I’d welcome any of them over any of our pack. I don’t enjoy watching us get dominated week in week out for years.
