Scouting Report
✦ Analyst's Take
Consistent carrier with reliable defensive output

Across 27 matches Orabe averages close to seven carries per game and consistently pushes past the gainline, with his per-match meterage pointing to a full back who contributes meaningfully with ball in hand rather than sitting on the periphery. His tackle numbers are modest on average but his peak of eight in a single match shows he can shoulder a heavier defensive load when required. Five tries across the dataset add a finishing dimension to what is primarily a workrate-driven profile.
