Carrera's tackle counts are the defining feature of his game, averaging over seven per match with a single-game peak of nineteen that points to a player who shoulders significant defensive responsibility at lock. His carry numbers are modest but consistent, suggesting he is used as a controlled, low-risk ball carrier rather than a primary gainline threat. Across twelve matches he has shown the durability and work-rate expected of a dependable forward in both European and domestic competition.
