Across 83 matches O'Donoghue averages eight tackles per game, a volume that marks him as a consistent defensive workhorse at the breakdown and in open play. His carrying numbers tell a similar story of sustained industry — over 540 carries for more than 1 200 metres — while his single-game peaks of 22 tackles and 19 carries indicate he can step up his output significantly when the occasion demands. Fourteen tries across this sample add a genuine attacking threat to what is primarily a high-work-rate, all-phases profile.
