Esterhuizen's data tells the story of a centre built around volume and physicality — averaging nine carries per match across 43 appearances, he is consistently a primary ball-carrier in any system he operates in. His single-game peaks of 18 carries and 98 metres demonstrate the ceiling of his impact when given full licence to run, while a tackles-per-match average nudging five underlines that his defensive contribution is far from an afterthought. The combination of sustained carrying load and reliable tackling numbers marks him out as a dual-phase workhorse at midfield.
