Scouting Report
✦ Analyst's Take
Efficient carrier with defensive bite

Across 50 matches Forbes has built a consistent profile as an active ball-carrier who contributes meaningfully with the ball in hand, regularly pushing beyond 29 metres per game while topping out at 109 metres in his best outings. His try-scoring return underlines a finishing threat, and a tackle count that peaks at nine in a single match signals he is not simply an attacking option — he puts in defensive shifts when required. The numbers paint a picture of a winger who holds his own across both phases of the game at a consistent clip.
