Across 47 URC appearances, Currie has built a profile defined by consistent defensive output, averaging six tackles per match with a single-game peak of 16 that points to a centre who absorbs significant defensive workload. His carrying numbers are steady rather than explosive, averaging just under five carries and around 19 metres per match, suggesting a role built on reliability and structure rather than line-breaking volume. The combination of nearly 900 metres carried and over 280 tackles across his sample reflects a player who contributes meaningfully in both phases over a sustained period.
