Clean sheets

3.56 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — solid defensive volume, with 2 clean sheets across 23 appearances. Behind a title-challenging side (2nd of 12) 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 2 assists — a useful bonus from the back.

Strengths

  • Availability. On the pitch for 85.4% of available minutes — a dependable presence in the XI.
  • Defensive volume. 3.56 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — does the unseen work.

Watch points

  • Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.

Outlook

With a Rating of 19.9, Barnett carries the 7th-highest potential of the full-backs in the A-League (top 22%). Defensively he reads as solid defensive volume (3.56 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Approaching peak years; value is still building (price multiplier 2×) with the best seasons likely ahead.
