Across 10 appearances as a replacement, Harada contributes far more with his tackling than his ball-carrying, averaging close to six tackles per outing and reaching 13 in a single game. His carry numbers are modest in both volume and metres gained, which points to a role built around defensive solidity rather than attacking threat. When the game demands a reliable defensive presence in the tight phases, he consistently delivers within his limited minutes.
