Across 23 matches Swain has established himself as a reliable defensive presence, averaging close to five tackles per game and reaching double figures in a single outing — numbers that reflect a lock who consistently competes at the breakdown and in the collisions. His carrying load is modest but purposeful, contributing short-range metres that support forward momentum rather than dominating ball-in-hand. The combination of steady tackle output and durable minutes played points to a player who earns his place through workrate and physical commitment.
