Furbank's numbers tell the story of a full back who consistently puts himself into the game — averaging nearly seven carries per match and eating up ground at better than 40 metres a time, he functions as a genuine attacking weapon rather than a last line of defence. His ten tries across 25 appearances confirm that he converts that involvement into points at a meaningful rate. When conditions demand it, his ceiling rises sharply, with single-game peaks of 17 carries and 139 metres showing he can shoulder a heavy attacking load.
