Butler's numbers across eight matches paint a picture of a centre who earns his place primarily through defensive work, averaging over five tackles per game and demonstrating the capacity to step up significantly when required — his ten-tackle single-game peak speaks to real reliability under pressure. His carrying is measured rather than prolific, but he moves the ball forward consistently, and his best individual performance of 48 metres from nine carries shows the attacking ceiling is there when the opportunity arises.
