Scouting Report
Analyst's Take
Relentless defensive presence, consistent carrier

Across 20 appearances, Dodd's output is defined above all by his tackling — averaging 6.5 per match with a single-game peak of 19, he provides a dependable defensive engine at the breakdown. His carrying numbers are steady rather than explosive, though his best outings show he can shoulder a heavier attacking load when required. The consistency of his contributions across three competitions points to a player who fulfils his role reliably across a full campaign.
