Scouting Report
Analyst's Take
Busy link man, fierce in defence

Across 26 matches Casey averages close to three tackles per game, with a single-game peak of 14 that underlines his willingness to put his body on the line well beyond what most nines are asked to do. His carry numbers are modest by volume but efficient in gain, and five tries from the base of the ruck confirm he reads the game sharply enough to exploit space when it opens. One Player of the Match award across this dataset hints at the occasional performance that lifts above his steady, consistent baseline.
