O'Flaherty's try return across 23 matches speaks to a wing who consistently gets into scoring positions, while his carrying volume and meterage suggest he is used as an active ball-runner rather than a peripheral threat. He averages close to ten carries and nearly 58 metres per match, with single-game peaks of 25 carries and 120 metres indicating he can shoulder a significant workload when required. His tackle contributions are modest on average but a best of eleven in a single match shows he is capable of defending well beyond the typical wing expectation.
