Scouting Report
✦ Analyst's Take
Consistent carrier with defensive presence

Across 31 matches, Baleiwairiki demonstrates a reliable and well-rounded centre's profile, contributing steadily with the ball in hand and holding his own in the defensive line. His per-match averages reflect a player who carries purposefully rather than speculatively, while his tackle numbers suggest he is asked to do genuine defensive work at this level. The fact that he has reached 12 carries and 100 metres in a single game indicates he can step up his output meaningfully when the situation demands it.
