Marchand's workload across 34 matches tells the story of a hooker built around defensive reliability, averaging close to nine tackles per game and topping out at 20 in a single outing. His carrying numbers are modest but consistent, suggesting he fulfils a functional ball-carrying role rather than acting as a primary option with ball in hand. The volume of minutes accumulated points to a player his coaching staff trust to stay on the field and do the unglamorous work.
