Across 34 matches Burke contributes well beyond the stereotypical fly-half remit, averaging over six tackles per game and getting through the defensive work you would more readily associate with a back-rower. His carrying numbers tell a similar story — nearly five carries a game accumulating meaningful metres — and single-game peaks of 12 carries and 14 tackles confirm he is capable of stepping up that involvement substantially when the match demands it. Five tries over the sample add an attacking dimension that rounds out a profile built primarily on consistent, high-volume contribution in both phases.
