Scouting Report
✦ Analyst's Take
Impact carrier with reliable defensive work

Across 29 appearances predominantly off the bench, McParland demonstrates a consistent ability to make his minutes count, averaging over 24 metres per match from limited ball carries and contributing meaningfully with the ball in hand. His nine tries across the dataset speak to a finishing instinct that belies a replacement role, while his tackling numbers show he engages defensively as well as offensively when introduced. Peak performances of 10 carries, 109 metres and nine tackles in a single match indicate he is capable of genuine impact shifts when given extended opportunity.
