Across 22 Super Rugby appearances, Delany has established himself as a high-volume defensive presence, averaging nearly 10 tackles per match — a figure that points to consistent front-line defensive responsibility rather than an impact-off-the-bench role. His carrying numbers are steady rather than explosive, suggesting his primary value is in providing hard yards and defensive grunt across a full match. A single-game peak of 22 tackles underlines that he can shoulder an exceptional defensive workload when required.
