Scouting Report
✦ Analyst's Take
Efficient link man, sharp in contact

Across 55 matches Shiel has operated as a consistent tempo-setter at nine, contributing steadily through carries and a reliable defensive workrate rather than dominating the ball. His per-game numbers reflect a controlled, low-volume role, yet his best outings — peaking at 8 carries and 86 metres in a single match — show he can step up his involvement significantly when the game demands it. Five tries across the dataset add a genuine attacking threat to his profile.
