Scouting Report
✦ Analyst's Take
Relentless carrier and defensive anchor

Across 37 matches Bruni sustains an impressive dual workload, averaging over five carries and five tackles per game while consistently eating up ground with ball in hand. His per-match numbers point to a player trusted to lead the forward effort in both phases rather than a specialist in one. The ceiling shown in his best performances — nearly 20 carries and 16 tackles in a single outing — confirms he can shift up several gears when the contest demands it.
