Scouting Report
✦ Analyst's Take
Disciplined defensive anchor off the bench

Across 14 appearances as a replacement, Hanson has built a profile defined almost entirely by his defensive contribution, averaging 1.5 tackles per outing with a single-game peak of six. His carrying is minimal and used sparingly, reflecting a role focused on maintaining defensive structure rather than generating ball-in-hand momentum. Within his limited minutes he has shown consistency in that defensive output across both Champions Cup and Premiership competition.
