Spina is a winger with speed to burn. Fast, agile and deft. Able to swing past the opposition with ease, drawing penalties. Not afraid to hit, but more of a finesse player. Has a temper that tends to flare when he feels the referees don't call penalties for clutch and grab, making him prone to taking reactionary penalties. (EP 2016)
