Scouting Report
✦ Analyst's Take
Relentless defensive presence off the bench

Meka's tackle numbers stand out immediately — averaging 7.5 per match as a replacement speaks to a player who arrives on the field with defensive intent and sustains it through the final whistle. His carrying game is steady rather than explosive, contributing nearly 10 metres per appearance, with peak outings showing he can push well beyond that when given the opportunity. Across three competitions and over 400 minutes of rugby, his workrate shows a consistent pattern of high-impact, defence-first contributions.
