Playing style
K. Walker is a progressive ball-carrier from full-back, happiest when he can step through the first line and turn defensive recovery into forward momentum. He plays with veteran calm, using exceptional ball retention to ride contact, protect possession, and keep attacks alive rather than forcing the issue. The role suits him: advanced enough to matter going forward, disciplined enough to reset the play when the lane closes.
