Regain some of his form? He played 0 games last season, and 10 the season before. We are looking at 22 at BEST form wise.
I just wish we'd address gaps / holes. That's all.
Six years ago those guys were all 2+ years older than Taukeiho is now, so I think he could still have a season or three of good footy left in him.
Yes Rodney is a strange inclusion in that list
Train and trial deal hopefully, hasn’t played an NRL game since 2022 and the game has only got quicker for an ageing middle.
The risk is eliminated somewhat if the contract is train and trial.

The article I saw said he was on a train and trial, but I think there's a half decent chance that he comes good
Won't you get...board?
If this is just a train and trial contract surely it is worth the risk.

Think you’ll find it’s a one year deal,as opposed to a train and trial contract.Either way,at one year,it’s hardly a risk,despite my reservations due to his lack of games in the last two years,including zero this year
Manly confirm gamble on injury prone veteran as Sio Siua Taukeiaho signs
Nine World Sports ....Taukeiaho was one of the most consistent front-rowers in the game in his nine years with the Roosters but is now 32 and has played just 10 games in the past two seasons - and none in 2024.
The veteran prop was dogged by a nagging foot injury and eventually underwent surgery midway through this year.
He is on a train and trial deal with Manly - similar to the one on which they signed tough forward Nathan Brown this season.
But he has been given extensive medical checks and cleared by the Sea Eagles' high performance staff to resume full training.
Taukeiaho agreed to play for the Bulldogs last season but the injury continued to hamper him and he never took the field.
He agreed to a train and trial with the Sea Eagles on Friday and will formally sign a contract next week.
He then only has to get through the trials to earn a spot in the club's 30-man roster.
"He is big, strong and experienced and will add something to us," a Manly source told Wide World of Sports.
"He lives in the area so it's handy for him and he should be great for our young forwards."
