Arnold contributes consistently across both phases, averaging over four carries and more than two and a half tackles per match across eight appearances. His workload is steady rather than explosive, with his best single-game outputs of 13 carries and 11 tackles showing he can lift meaningfully when the contest demands it. The modest metres gained from his carries point to a player operating in tight, grinding situations rather than seeking go-forward in open field.
