Across 24 appearances, Heguy has built a profile defined almost entirely by his defensive output, averaging over six tackles per match from a replacement role — with a single-game peak of 17 that underlines his capacity to make an immediate physical impact. His carrying numbers are modest by design, suggesting his primary brief is to shore up the defensive line rather than generate momentum with ball in hand. The consistency of his tackle volume across Challenge Cup, Champions Cup, and Top 14 football points to a dependable, specialist role at this level.
