Across 66 matches, Fifita shows up as a consistent ball-carrier and a high-volume tackler, averaging over seven tackles per game with peak outputs of 15 in a single match pointing to genuine defensive durability. His carrying numbers tell a similar story — steady rather than explosive on average, yet capable of breaking triple figures in metres in standout performances, suggesting he can shift gears when the game demands it. With 11 tries across that workload, he contributes meaningfully beyond the breakdown without being defined by it.
