Lee's tackle numbers stand out as his most consistent contribution, averaging nearly eight per match across his eight appearances and peaking at 13 in a single game — figures that point to an industrious, defence-first approach at the breakdown and in open play. His carrying workload is steady rather than explosive, suggesting a role built around set-piece support and hard yards rather than line-breaking. Two tries from 47 carries show he gets himself into scoring positions when the opportunity arises.
