Scouting Report
✦ Analyst's Take
Tireless defensive engine at the breakdown

Across 22 matches and over a thousand minutes of action, Paea's output is defined almost entirely by his defensive workload, averaging close to eight tackles per game and topping out at 18 in a single outing. His carrying is measured rather than expansive, contributing steadily through contact without being a primary ball-carrier in attack. The consistency of his tackle numbers across competitions points to a player whose value is built on reliability and physical commitment at the defensive coalface.
