Marchesin consistently makes his presence felt through his tackle work, averaging five and a half tackles per appearance as a replacement — a rate that points to an impact player trusted to shore up defence when it matters most. His carrying numbers are modest, reflecting the limited ball-carrying opportunities typical of a forward coming off the bench, though his best outing shows he can contribute meaningfully in tight phases when called upon.
