Across 11 United Rugby Championship appearances, Madigan's output is defined far more by his defensive work than his carrying, averaging over two tackles per match with a single-game peak of nine that points to genuine defensive commitment for a ten. His carrying role is modest and measured, rarely asked to make ground with ball in hand, suggesting he operates as a controlling, system-based fly half rather than an aggressive ball-carrier. The consistency of his defensive numbers across limited minutes indicates he is a reliable defensive presence whenever called upon.
