Across five U20 Championship appearances, Doyle has established himself as a consistent defensive presence, averaging more than five tackles per match and peaking at eight in a single game — numbers that point to a prop who prioritises contest and collision over the gainline. His carrying is measured rather than explosive, but he contributes reliably through the phases, with his best outing showing he can combine physical ball-carrying with a high defensive workload in the same match.
