Casey brings consistent volume across both phases of play, averaging close to ten tackles and over seven carries per match across eleven Super Rugby appearances. His carrying numbers translate into meaningful metres gained, pointing to an ability to punch through contact rather than merely receiving the ball. The peaks in his best outings — over twenty carries and eighteen tackles in a single game — suggest he can shoulder an increased workload when the team demands it.
