Mazza's tackle numbers stand out immediately — averaging 7.4 per match across 36 appearances points to a player consistently asked to do heavy defensive work at the gainline. His carrying contributes reliably rather than explosively, with 578 metres from 170 carries suggesting a role built around continuity and forward momentum rather than line-breaks. A peak of 19 tackles in a single match underlines his capacity to carry that defensive load when the pressure is highest.
