Across 19 matches, Carter's numbers tell the story of a lock who earns his minutes through defensive industry — averaging over 13 tackles per game and accumulating 248 in total, a volume that speaks to consistent involvement across all phases. His carrying is efficient rather than expansive, contributing reliably at close quarters with 86 carries across the dataset, while his best individual performances — 24 tackles and 9 carries in a single game — show he can raise his output markedly when the contest demands it.
