Scouting Report
✦ Analyst's Take
Tireless impact carrier and tackler

Deployed consistently as a replacement across three competitions, Delhommel brings reliable defensive output, averaging over four tackles per appearance with a single-game peak of 18 that signals his capacity to take on a heavy workload late in matches. His ten tries from 35 outings demonstrate a genuine threat around the fringes, while his carry numbers reflect the controlled, targeted usage typical of a finisher role rather than a volume ball-carrier. The combination of consistent tackling and consistent scoring makes him a dependable option off the bench across multiple competition levels.
