Across 26 matches McFarland sustains an impressive workload on both sides of the ball, averaging nearly nine tackles and over seven carries per game — figures that point to a flanker who is heavily relied upon throughout contests rather than used selectively. His ability to peak at 24 tackles and 16 carries in a single outing underlines the physical ceiling he can reach when the game demands it. With 470 metres from 184 carries, he consistently generates go-forward as a ball-carrier while maintaining the defensive output you'd expect from a high-minutes, impact-every-phase loose forward.
