Barton is a consistent ball-carrier at full back, averaging close to 30 metres per game across 20 appearances and showing the capacity to take on a significantly heavier workload when the game demands it — his peak of 17 carries and 90 metres in a single outing speaks to genuine involvement in the attacking structure. His try-scoring return adds a finishing dimension to his carrying game, while his tackle numbers suggest a measured rather than dominant defensive role at 15.
