Across 22 Super Rugby appearances as a replacement, O'Neill's output is defined overwhelmingly by his defensive work, averaging four tackles per outing and accumulating 89 in total. His carrying numbers are modest by design, suggesting his primary job on arrival is to shore up the defensive line rather than carry ball. When called upon, he is capable of stepping up markedly, with single-game peaks of 10 tackles and six carries indicating he can lift his workload when the match demands it.
