Across 58 matches Fickou shows a consistent defensive workload, averaging over four tackles per game with a single-match peak of 16, marking him as a centre who commits hard in the defensive line. His carrying is steady rather than explosive on a per-game basis, though his best outings demonstrate genuine burst — 15 carries and 72 metres in a single match — suggesting he can shift gears when called upon. Two player-of-the-match awards across a broad spread of competitions point to performances that go beyond baseline consistency.
