Umaga-Jensen's tackle numbers stand out as his most consistent contribution, averaging nearly seven per match across ten Super Rugby appearances and peaking at fifteen in a single game — output that points to a centre who takes real defensive responsibility. His carrying is reliable rather than explosive, providing a consistent platform through contact with just over twenty-five metres gained per match. The balance between his workload in both phases suggests a player used as a hard-working, two-way operator in the midfield.
