Scouting Report
✦ Analyst's Take
Tireless carrier and defensive enforcer

Across 91 matches Porter has been a consistent and demanding presence, averaging close to six tackles per game and accumulating over 500 in total — a volume that speaks to a prop who carries genuine defensive responsibility beyond the set piece. His carrying numbers are steady rather than spectacular, but peak outings of 12 carries and 17 tackles in a single match show he can shoulder an unusually heavy workload when the game demands it. The combination of those highs and his minute count underlines a player built on reliability and physical endurance.
