Across 35 matches, Tuilagi averages just over five carries per game but consistently converts them into meaningful metres, reflecting an efficient rather than high-volume carrying role. His tackle numbers tell an equally important story — nearly four and a half per match across nearly 1900 minutes points to a centre relied upon on both sides of the ball. Peak games of 12 carries, 88 metres, and 12 tackles in a single match illustrate the ceiling he can reach when given licence to impose himself.
