Neild's profile across four Premiership appearances is defined overwhelmingly by his defensive output, averaging close to eight tackles per match and peaking at 18 in a single game — figures that point to a workhorse flanker trusted to do the hard graft at the breakdown and in the line. His carrying numbers are modest both in volume and metres gained, suggesting his role is built around defensive structure rather than ball-in-hand threat. When the carries do come, the gains are limited, reinforcing that his primary value to Newcastle Red Bulls lies in his consistency and volume as a tackler.
