Across 32 appearances as a replacement, van Vuuren has built a profile defined above all by defensive consistency, averaging over four tackles per game and reaching double figures in a single outing — a high bar for an impact finisher. His carrying numbers are modest but purposeful, suggesting he is used to stabilise rather than to attack, bringing controlled physicality in the moments that matter most. The try return across this sample adds an opportunistic edge to what is essentially a high-effort, defence-first role.
