Valentino's tackle numbers stand out as the clearest signal of his role — averaging over five tackles per match, he carries a significant defensive workload for a centre. His carrying game is controlled rather than explosive, consistently contributing to the gain line without dominating it, which points to a player used in a structured, team-first system. His peak output of nine carries and 33 metres in a single match shows the capacity to step up his influence when called upon.
