Across 45 matches Connors has built one of the most consistent tackling profiles in the dataset, averaging over six tackles per game with a single-match peak of 17 — figures that point to a player deployed primarily to win collisions and disrupt opposition ball. His carrying numbers are modest by design, suggesting a role built around defensive structure rather than gaining ground, yet his best outings show he can contribute with ball in hand when called upon.
