Scouting Report
Analyst's Take
Carrying fly half with defensive bite

Nelson's match data across the Rugby World Cup reveals a fly half who contributes meaningfully in both phases, averaging over 42 metres per game from his carries while also putting in more than seven tackles per outing. His best individual performances push to 65 carrying metres and double-digit tackles in a single match, suggesting he steps up his involvement in high-demand contests. That combination of ball-carrying volume and defensive work rate points to a 10 who operates as an active link rather than a purely distributive pivot.
