Scouting Report
✦ Analyst's Take
Industrious carrier with consistent defensive edge

Across 34 matches Ioane has shown a workload that goes well beyond the stereotypical fly-half role, averaging over eight carries and more than 32 metres per game while also putting his body on the line with five tackles a match. His seven tries reflect a willingness to be involved close to the gainline, and peak outputs of 19 carries and 136 metres in a single outing indicate he can take on a genuine ball-carrying burden when the game demands it. The tackle numbers, peaking at 13 in one match, reinforce that his defensive contribution is far from token.
