Tuilagi showed enough last year to suggest he is ready for a full-time starting role in the NRL, and he now gets the chance to help revamp the Manly left side, which will feature a new half - likely to be Josh Schuster - following the departure of Kieran Foran to the Titans.
That partnership has some real potential, given both Tuilagi and Schuster are likely to also take the field together for Samoa in the future, and the Auckland-born back-rower can play a big role in helping to take some pressure off his playmaker in defence. While Haumole Olakau'atu had the right side locked down, Manly's left second row position was up in the air for most of the 2022 season, with Andrew Davey, Ethan Bullemor and Ben Trbojevic a few of the names who spent time there.
With the arrival of Tuilagi it's now one less spot new coach Anthony Seibold will have to worry about this coming season.
