Across nine URC appearances, Oosthuizen's tackle numbers stand out as the defining feature of his game, averaging over six per match and reaching 14 in a single outing — a workload that points to a prop heavily relied upon in the defensive structure. His carrying contributes steadily rather than explosively, with consistent involvement around the gainline each match. The overall picture is of a tighthead who earns his minutes through defensive durability and disciplined set-piece presence.
