Output in context · Brisbane Roar finished 11th of 12 · a relegation-threatened side
3.41 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — moderate defensive volume, with 2 clean sheets across 9 appearances. Doing that for a relegation-threatened side (11th of 12) is harder than the bare numbers suggest: a back line under more pressure has to defend more often and protects fewer leads, so the volume — and any clean sheets — carry real weight.
Watch points
- Game time. Only 38.3% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
- Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.
Outlook
Rated 11.9 overall — below regular-starter level. Defensively he reads as moderate defensive volume (3.41 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Experienced and reliable, but the value curve is easing (1.2× now → 0.9× projected in three years).
