Stockdale's workload across 71 matches reflects a wing asked to do more than finish — his carry volume and meterage per game point to a player consistently involved in build-up phases rather than simply waiting on the edge. His try return of 24 across that sample underlines an end-product that justifies the ball-in-hand trust placed in him. The defensive numbers are modest on a per-game basis, though his single-match ceiling of nine tackles shows he can contribute meaningfully when the defensive workload demands it.
