Scouting Report
✦ Analyst's Take
Dependable impact finisher off the bench

Across 13 appearances as a replacement, Minto contributes consistently as a carrier and a tackler, averaging close to five of each per outing despite limited minutes. His peak performances — reaching 16 carries and 11 tackles in a single match — show he can shoulder a significantly heavier workload when required. That combination of reliable output and the capacity to step up in demanding moments defines his value from the bench.
