Walker's numbers tell the story of a specialist impact replacement built around defensive reliability — his tackle averages place him among the more active ball-carriers off the bench, and his consistency across Champions Cup and Premiership rugby underlines that reliability. His carrying contribution is modest in volume, though his best outings show he can combine meaningful metres with a double-digit tackle count in the same game. The picture is of a forward who earns his minutes through defensive work-rate rather than ball-in-hand ambition.
