Across 39 matches, Swain's workload tells a consistent story: a lock who shows up in contact at both ends of the field, averaging over seven tackles per game while remaining an active carrier throughout. His peak outputs — 22 tackles and 11 carries in a single match — signal that his ceiling is considerably higher than his steady averages suggest. He is the kind of forward whose value is measured in metres earned and ground defended rather than headline statistics.
