Murray's averages across 15 matches paint the picture of a lock whose primary value lies in defensive volume — nearly 11 tackles per game is a significant workload for a forward. His carrying numbers are modest but consistent, suggesting he fulfils a reliable ball-carrying role rather than a dominant one. The ceiling shown in his best performances — 21 tackles and 12 carries in a single match — confirms he can step up his involvement materially when the occasion demands.
