Across six URC appearances, Currie has shown a high defensive workload that stands out as his most consistent trait, averaging over seven tackles per match with a single-game peak of 15 — the mark of a player relied upon to do significant defensive heavy lifting. His carrying contributes steady front-foot metres, and two tries from limited sample suggest he reaches the contact area with purpose. The combination of consistent tackle numbers and gainline presence points to a Number 8 used as a core work-rate engine in Edinburgh's forward structure.
