Across 64 matches O'Sullivan has built a profile defined by relentless defensive output, averaging over six tackles per game and accumulating more than 400 in total — figures that point to a prop who consistently fronts up across all phases. His carrying numbers are steady rather than explosive, reflecting the controlled, low-risk ball-carrying you expect from a loosehead operating within structured forward play. The occasional standout performance — 13 carries and 19 tackles in a single match — shows he has the capacity to step up his influence when the game demands it.
