Across 25 appearances in Rugby World Cup and Six Nations rugby, Marler has consistently operated as a replacement, accumulating over 500 minutes without troubling the try-scorers — a profile typical of a specialist carrying and defending front-rower. His tackle numbers are his standout metric, averaging 2.3 per match across the dataset and reaching nine in a single game, pointing to a player who prioritises defensive contribution once introduced. His carrying is measured rather than explosive, with averages suggesting short, purposeful bursts rather than a dominant ball-in-hand role.
