Scouting Report
✦ Analyst's Take
Defensive anchor, consistent carrying threat

Across 12 matches Norey has established himself as a high-volume tackler, averaging close to six tackles per game and reaching 14 in a single outing — numbers that point to a hooker who takes serious defensive responsibility. He contributes reliably with ball in hand too, and his best carrying performance of nine carries for 22 metres in one match shows he can step up as a genuine contact weapon when the game demands it. Two tries across the sample add a finishing dimension that rounds out a consistent, workmanlike profile at the set-piece base.
