Scouting Report
✦ Analyst's Take
Defensive anchor in the trenches

Across 25 United Rugby Championship appearances, Walker's output is defined overwhelmingly by his defensive work, averaging over five tackles per match and totalling 131 across the dataset — a volume that points to a prop used heavily as a defensive resource. His carrying numbers are modest in frequency and gain, reflecting a role where ball-carrying is secondary to set-piece and defensive duties. When called upon with ball in hand, however, his best individual performances show he is capable of meaningful bursts, with single-game peaks of 8 carries and 16 metres demonstrating that the ceiling is higher than his averages suggest.
