Across 47 matches, Wainwright's workload marks him as a high-volume contributor on both sides of the ball, averaging just under seven carries and seven tackles per game with the consistency to sustain that output over 2,200-plus minutes of top-level rugby. His single-game peaks — 21 carries and 18 tackles in the same window — point to a number 8 capable of stepping up his involvement significantly when the match demands it. Seven tries across the dataset add a finishing dimension that complements his primary role as a physical engine in the forward structure.
