Odendaal is a consistent contributor across both phases of the game, combining steady ball-carrying volume with reliable defensive output over 16 matches in Champions Cup and URC competition. His per-game averages reflect a centre who is involved regularly in the carry and holds his own in the tackle, while his best performances — pushing into double figures for carries and close to 100 metres — show he has the capacity to impose himself when the game demands it.
