Across 31 appearances as a replacement, van Vuuren has built a reputation as a reliable defensive contributor, averaging over four tackles per outing from limited minutes on the field. His carrying numbers are modest by design — fewer than three per game — yet he has shown the ability to make a genuine impact when called upon, with single-game peaks of 13 tackles and 27 metres that suggest he lifts his output in bigger moments. The data paints a picture of a player whose primary value lies in defensive solidity and consistency rather than ball-in-hand threat.
