Across 35 matches, de la Fuente's tackle numbers stand out most — averaging over five per game and peaking at 13 in a single outing, he carries a heavy defensive load for his side. His carrying is steady rather than explosive, consistently moving the gain line with an average of nearly 15 metres per appearance, while his best game of 18 carries and 67 metres shows he can shoulder a much bigger ball-carrying burden when required. The volume of minutes he accumulates across multiple competitions points to a centre who is trusted to play the full game in demanding environments.
