Across 13 appearances as a replacement, Tichit's output is defined almost entirely by his defensive work, averaging close to four tackles per outing and peaking at 11 in a single game. His carrying is minimal and functional rather than impactful, suggesting his primary value on the field is structural — holding the line and cleaning up rather than generating momentum with ball in hand. The consistency of his tackle numbers across Champions Cup and Top 14 football points to a player who arrives off the bench with a clear defensive brief and delivers on it reliably.
