Across 21 appearances as a replacement, Skinner has built a consistent impact profile anchored by his defensive work, averaging two tackles per outing over 335 minutes of action. His carrying numbers are modest on a per-game basis, but peak performances of 12 carries and 35 metres in a single match show he can shoulder a much heavier attacking load when called upon. He is a dependable option to inject physicality in both phases without dominating either statistic.
