Across 30 matches Saginadze averages nearly nine tackles per game, a workload that marks him as a primary defensive operator at the breakdown and in open play. His carrying is consistent rather than explosive, contributing reliable metres per match and peaking at 15 carries and 28 tackles in a single outing — figures that point to an engine-room flanker built for sustained high-intensity minutes. With over 1500 minutes logged across three competitions, his durability and defensive output are the clearest hallmarks of his game.
