Scouting Report
Analyst's Take
Reliable carrier and defensive workhorse

Screech consistently contributes both with ball in hand and in defence across his United Rugby Championship appearances, averaging close to six carries and nearly six tackles per match as a replacement. His defensive output is particularly notable, with a best single-game return of ten tackles underlining his ability to make an immediate impact off the bench. A try return alongside steady metres gained shows he offers more than just graft, contributing meaningfully in attack when called upon.
