Across 40 matches Havili combines consistent ball-carrying with a defensive workload that stands out at centre, averaging over seven tackles per game and reaching 20 in his best outings. His carrying numbers tell a story of steady, purposeful involvement rather than high-volume bursts, accumulating nearly 800 metres at a reliable clip across top-level competition. Ten tries over this sample adds a genuine attacking threat to what is clearly a well-rounded, two-way game.
