Parker's averages across 37 matches paint the picture of a high-volume defensive enforcer, consistently racking up close to ten tackles per game with a single-match peak of 20 that underlines his capacity to dominate when called upon. His carrying numbers tell a complementary story — reliable rather than explosive, he contributes steadily with the ball in hand across more than 200 minutes of rugby per outing on average. The combination of sustained tackle output and consistent carries across multiple competitions marks him as a durable, all-weather flanker.
