Scouting Report
✦ Analyst's Take
Relentless defensive workhorse at the breakdown

Across 31 matches K'poku averages over seven tackles per game, a volume that marks him as a primary defensive contributor at flanker rather than an impact carrier. His carries are modest in frequency but his ability to peak at 14 tackles and 11 carries in a single outing shows he can absorb a full workload when required. He operates consistently across three competitions, suggesting reliability and durability as core traits of his game.
