Across four Currie Cup appearances as a replacement, Lavagna's impact is defined almost entirely by his defensive work, averaging close to three tackles per game from limited minutes. His carrying load is minimal, suggesting his primary function when introduced is to shore up the defensive line rather than carry ball. His best individual outing — five tackles and four carries — hints at a broader contribution when given the opportunity to impose himself.
