Talakai re-captures career-defining form

Siosifa Talakai's performance against Manly in round seven remains one of the talking points of season 2022.Rampaging Shark Talakai destroyed the Sea Eagles, running for 262 metres and scoring and setting up tries like they were going out of style.A back-rower moved to the centres, Talakai has had his ups and downs since then, reflecting how hard a positional change can be.But against the Rabbitohs in Saturday night's golden point thriller, Talakai was back to his devastating best.He made 225 metres - his most since that career-defining game against Manly, and was the difference between two very closely matched teams.His ground gaining was nearly 50 metres higher than any other player on the park - and those precious metres made it possible for Nicho Hynes to boot the deciding field goal.
