Botha's match data across five Currie Cup appearances paints a clear picture of a replacement who prioritises defensive contribution, averaging close to three tackles per outing with a standout single-game effort of ten. His carrying load is modest in volume but consistent, suggesting he is used to consolidate rather than to spark — a reliable impact option rather than an attacking catalyst. When called upon, he brings disciplined, low-risk energy to the forward pack.
