Tangitau's numbers tell the story of a wing who works hard in open play — averaging nearly eight carries and 58 metres per match, he is a genuine ball-carrier rather than a peripheral finisher. His seven tries across eleven appearances show he arrives in the right place at the right rate, while a consistent five-plus tackles per game suggests he is not shy of defensive responsibility out wide. When he gets into a match, as his peaks of 14 carries and 103 metres indicate, he can become a dominant thread in the attacking game.
