Currie's tackle numbers stand out immediately — averaging over seven per match and peaking at 15 in a single game, he carries a significant defensive burden at the base of the scrum. His carrying is steady rather than explosive, consistently picking up ground through contact across eight URC appearances. The two tries add a threat at the breakdown, rounding out a profile built on high-volume, dependable work rather than flashes of individual brilliance.
