Fabiani's numbers tell the story of a high-volume defensive worker, averaging seven tackles per match across a demanding mix of competitions including the Rugby World Cup and Six Nations. His carrying contributes modestly but consistently, with his best single outings showing he can step up to seven carries and 17 tackles when the game demands it. He is a reliable set-piece operator who earns his minutes through hard defensive graft rather than ball-in-hand flair.
