Across 51 matches, Farrell's tackle numbers stand out as the clearest indicator of his role — averaging 4.5 per game with a single-match peak of 17, he consistently operates as a defensive cornerstone in the centre. His carrying is controlled rather than prolific, averaging under three touches per game, though his best outings show he can take on a heavier workload when required. The overall picture is of a player whose value is built on defensive reliability and disciplined game management rather than volume with ball in hand.
