Umaga-Jensen is a consistent workhorse in midfield, averaging close to nine carries and nearly 33 metres per game across 12 Super Rugby appearances — numbers that point to a centre heavily involved in ball-carrying exchanges rather than a peripheral option. His tackle count is equally telling, with nearly seven defensive contributions per match and a single-game peak of 12, suggesting he holds his defensive shape reliably under pressure. The standout individual showing of 16 carries and 118 metres in one outing confirms he has the capacity to take on a much bigger share of the workload when the game demands it.
