Sjoblom's tackle numbers stand out immediately — averaging 7.6 per match across 16 appearances, with a single-game peak of 22, he carries a substantial defensive workload for a lock. His carries are steady rather than explosive, suggesting a player trusted to build phases and maintain go-forward rather than break the line on his own. Two tries from 854 minutes of action reflects a forward who earns his value through repetition and reliability at the set piece and breakdown.
Born on 8 August 2000, Dylan is 26 years old, stands 206cm (6′9″) tall and weighs 102kg.
