Across 80 matches, Prendergast's averages of over 10 tackles and 7 carries per game paint the picture of a flanker who is central to both defensive structure and ball-carrying momentum. His 17 tries across the dataset show he consistently arrives in attacking positions, while peak outputs of 21 tackles and 16 carries in a single match indicate he can shoulder an exceptional workload when the game demands it. He is the kind of forward whose influence is felt in the grunt work that shapes matches rather than in isolated moments.
