O'Connor's numbers across three URC appearances are defined by his tackling output, averaging over six tackles per match with a single-game peak of twelve — a rate that points to a player used primarily as a defensive presence at lock. His carrying is limited in both frequency and metres gained, suggesting his role in these matches has been built around stopping ball-carriers rather than advancing the forward pack. The combination of consistent tackle counts and minimal carrying load paints a picture of a specialist defensive forward within the tight five.
