Across 26 appearances for Connacht, Reilly has built a profile defined more by defensive reliability than carrying volume, averaging 2.5 tackles per match and accumulating 64 in total. His carrying contributions are measured and efficient rather than prominent, though peaks of 6 carries and 24 metres in a single game show he can step up his involvement when the moment demands. The picture is of a scrum half who earns his minutes through consistency at the breakdown and in defence.
