Across 30 URC appearances, Daly's output is defined first and foremost by his defensive work rate, averaging over five tackles per match and peaking at 16 in a single game — figures that point to a centre relied upon heavily in the defensive line. His carrying numbers are measured rather than dominant, but he consistently converts contact into forward metres, with his best outings showing the capacity to shoulder a much greater attacking load when required. The overall picture is of a dependable, high-minute contributor whose value is built on consistency and physicality rather than headline statistics.
