Rey's tackle count is the defining feature of his profile — averaging 7.6 per match across 32 appearances, with a single-game peak of 20, he carries a heavy defensive burden consistent with a prop used prominently in the loose. His carrying is steady rather than explosive, accumulating metres reliably over a high number of involvements per game. The volume of minutes he logs underlines his durability and his value as a consistent platform player in both competitions.
