Across 28 matches Walker-Leawere has established himself as a high-volume tackler, averaging over eight tackles per game with a single-match peak of 21 — the kind of output that defines a lock who takes genuine ownership of defensive duties. His carrying is consistent rather than explosive, contributing close to five carries and nine metres per outing, with the ball used efficiently in the tight channels typical of a forward-focused role. The combination of that defensive workload and steady carrying presence across more than 1 400 minutes paints a picture of a durable, process-driven engine forward.
