Scouting Report
✦ Analyst's Take
Relentless tackler, consistent carrying threat

Across 66 appearances, Izekor's match averages point to a flanker who prioritises defensive workrate above all else, consistently producing over ten tackles per game with single-game peaks of 27 that reflect genuine line-speed and durability. His carrying numbers are steady rather than explosive, averaging close to five carries and over sixteen metres per match, suggesting a player who contributes reliably in the tight rather than hunting line-breaks. The eleven tries accumulated over this period add a finishing dimension that rounds out a profile built primarily on high-volume defensive output.
