Across 70 appearances, O'Sullivan has built a profile defined by defensive reliability, averaging over six tackles per match and accumulating nearly 450 in total — numbers that speak to a prop consistently involved in the contact battle. His carrying contributes steadily rather than explosively, though peak performances of 13 carries and 19 tackles in a single game show he can shoulder a significantly heavier load when called upon. Three tries across this sample add a modest but real threat beyond the set-piece.
