Across 62 matches Slade operates as a measured, consistent presence in the midfield, averaging just over four carries and close to four tackles per game — numbers that reflect a controlled, team-oriented role rather than a high-volume one. His peak outputs of 17 carries and 109 metres in a single match demonstrate the capacity to shift gears when the game demands it, while 236 tackles across his dataset underline that his defensive contribution is no afterthought. The balance between his carrying and tackling averages suggests a centre who pulls his weight on both sides of the ball with quiet consistency.
