Barnes is one of the more industrious loose forwards in the competition, averaging close to ten carries and nearly ten tackles per match across his 14 Super Rugby appearances. His carrying numbers suggest a player used heavily as a primary ball-runner, while his tackle output points to significant defensive responsibility at the breakdown and in open play. His single-game peaks of 17 carries and 22 tackles indicate he can sustain an even higher workload when the game demands it.
