Scouting Report
✦ Analyst's Take
Consistent distributor with defensive bite

Across 88 matches Byrne shows a steady carry-and-tackle rhythm that points to an active, ball-in-hand fly half who does not shy away from contact. His per-match tackle numbers reflect genuine defensive involvement for a ten, while peak outputs of 18 carries and 14 tackles in a single game confirm he can step up his work rate considerably when the match demands it. The accumulated minutes paint a picture of a reliable presence who contributes consistently rather than in isolated bursts.
