Scouting Report
Analyst's Take
Consistent carrier with real finishing threat

Across 82 appearances, Dyer has built a profile defined by reliable, high-volume involvement — averaging close to six carries and 41 metres per match points to a wing who stays active in the contact battle rather than waiting on the periphery. His 23 tries from that workload show he converts opportunity efficiently, while peaks of 195 metres and 11 tackles in a single game demonstrate the capacity to take over when conditions demand it. The tackle numbers are modest by design but consistent, reflecting a player trusted to fulfil defensive duties without being overloaded.
