Navidi's numbers tell the story of a player built around defensive work, averaging close to four tackles per match across 11 appearances and peaking at 17 in a single game — a figure that speaks to consistent, high-volume involvement at the breakdown and in open play. His carrying is economical rather than explosive, used sparingly to keep defences honest rather than to generate metres in bulk. The single try on record is a reminder that when opportunities arise close to the line, he is positioned to take them.
