Scouting Report
✦ Analyst's Take
Consistent carrier, tries when it counts

Kearney contributes reliably with ball in hand, averaging over 40 metres per match from around six carries — a steady presence rather than a high-volume operator. His two tries across three matches show he reaches the line when opportunities arise, while his tackle count suggests a role focused more on attack than defensive workload.
