Across 90 matches McDowall has established himself as a high-volume centre, averaging close to eight carries per game and consistently eating up ground in the mid-field. His tackle numbers — over five per match sustained across nearly 6 000 minutes — point to a player who pulls genuine defensive weight rather than drifting in and out of contact. Peak outputs of 23 carries and 14 tackles in a single game underline that when the contest demands more, he has the capacity to lift well above his already busy baseline.
