Across 29 matches, Ioane presents as a fly half who commits unusually heavily to the physical contest, averaging nine carries per game and consistently putting his body on the line with over five tackles per outing. His single-game peaks of 19 carries and 136 metres indicate he can take on a dominant ball-carrying role when the gameplan demands it. That combination of volume in both attack and defence points to a ten who shoulders a significant workload beyond the traditional playmaking brief.
