Koppy, Green, Navarette, Gwaze and Tangata as it stands wont be part of the 2021 squad.

We have

Fifita, Arona and Aydin under contract.

I think 2 strong quality props are a must and very important signings with the yards we struggled with in a lot of the games. I’d be happy to retain one of Tangata or Navarette for rotation/back up also which would give us 6 props.

I’d keep them both.

Hmmm...not sure on Tangata (although TBF he hasn't done a lot wrong), but would probably give Navarette another season.

Not had many chances to be fair. He’s a big unit and actually does make the hard yards. Both are known quantities and really shouldn’t be judged on this season. In fairness very few should, only those who didn’t produce what we know they can are imo questionable, I suppose Fifita falls into that group but even the id tend to be lenient.

Tangata is just a workman like prop for me, as you say doesn't do much wrong and gets through the hard yards - The only thing is he will limit us in terms of a quota spot so for me it is all dependant on if we are planning on bringing in any quota players for next season (I know we are looking at at least one).

Will be interesting to see what happens with Fifita because I thought he was starting to get into stride in the last 2/3 games and I really hope he stays. I'd keep Tangata, less sure about Navarette but as has been said it's hard to judge either fairly on most of this season. We still need to add up front irrespective

If we could keep one of Navarette or Tangata for me it has to be Navarette, he has been quality.

I would also enquire about Battye joining us permanently if we could.

I would agree and take Navarette in front of Tangata.
