Across 53 matches, Moriarty averages over seven tackles per game alongside more than six carries, pointing to a Number 8 who contributes consistently at both ends of the field rather than specialising in one phase. His per-game carry figures translate to just over 20 metres gained, with single-game peaks of 96 metres and 20 tackles underlining the capacity to dominate individual contests when conditions demand it. The cumulative picture is one of sustained physical output — nearly 2,700 minutes played, close to 400 tackles made — that defines a forward built on availability and workrate.
