Leyds is a high-volume ball carrier for a full back, averaging over eight carries and 50 metres per match across more than 1,500 minutes of action, which points to a team that actively routes play through him rather than using him purely as a last line. His seven tries across 21 matches reflect genuine attacking productivity, while single-game peaks of 17 carries and over 100 metres gained show he can take on a dominant role when the game demands it. His tackle numbers are modest but steady, suggesting his primary value to the side sits firmly in attack.
