Devine contributes steadily with the ball in hand, averaging over six carries and 20 metres per match across his five United Rugby Championship appearances, with a single-game high of 48 metres pointing to genuine attacking impact when opportunities arise. His tackle output is equally dependable, averaging just over five per match and reaching nine in his best defensive performance, underlining a centre who commits to both sides of the contest. That balance of carrying and tackling across 327 minutes suggests a player trusted to do consistent work in the middle of the park.
