Across 54 appearances predominantly as a replacement, Taofifenua fulfils a consistent carrying and defensive role without ever overextending his involvement — his per-match averages reflect a player deployed in focused bursts rather than as a volume contributor. His best outings demonstrate genuine upside, with peaks of 16 carries and 58 metres showing he can take a game by the scruff when needed. The seven tries across this dataset add a modest but meaningful attacking dimension to what is otherwise a disciplined, workmanlike set of contributions.
