Across 17 appearances as a replacement, Lahiff has built a profile defined by defensive consistency, averaging over six tackles per match and topping out at 15 in a single game — a workrate that speaks to a player who arrives on the field ready to compete immediately. His carry numbers are modest but purposeful, reflecting a tight-forward role focused on set-piece and contact-area graft rather than metres gained. Four tries across this sample add a finishing dimension that lifts his overall impact beyond the purely functional.
