We hold a single season for Lei, so there's no year-on-year comparison to draw yet — the read above is this campaign only.

On long-term talent our Rating reads 7, 51st of 54 of the 54 full-backs in the Super League. At 34 Lei is into the veteran stage, where the age curve weighs on the projection, and a market index of 0.3 reflects that trajectory.

Clean sheets

3.85 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — solid defensive volume, with 2 clean sheets across 16 appearances. Behind an upper-table side (4th of 16) the side controls more games, so the defensive load is lighter — the value sits as much in composure and ball progression as in raw volume. Going forward he chipped in 1 goal and 0 assists — a useful bonus from the back.

Strengths

  • Defensive volume. 3.85 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — does the unseen work.

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 27.7% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
  • Age curve. At 34, both level and resale value are on the downslope.
  • Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.

Outlook

With a Rating of 6.9, Lei carries the 51st-highest potential of the full-backs in the Super League of 54 — though on just 16 appearances this season, so the standing rests on a small sample. Defensively he reads as solid defensive volume (3.85 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Veteran phase — a short-term, lower-fee proposition as both level and value decline (0.6× and falling).
