Scouting Report
Analyst's Take
Consistent carrier and defensive anchor

Baker's match data across four United Rugby Championship appearances points to a reliable workhorse profile, averaging over five carries and more than four tackles per game. His best single-game outputs — 14 carries for 59 metres and 11 tackles — suggest he is capable of stepping up his workload significantly when required. The combination of steady ball-carrying metres and consistent defensive numbers reflects a flanker who contributes meaningfully on both sides of the ball.
