Across 53 matches Landsberg has built a profile defined by consistent, unglamorous contribution — averaging over six tackles and more than five carries per game points to a lock who is deeply embedded in both phases of play every time he takes the field. His single-game peaks of 20 tackles and 15 carries show he can shoulder a heavier load when the match demands it, even if his yards-per-carry figure reflects the tight, attritional work expected of a forward in his position. The volume of minutes accumulated underlines that he is a durable presence rather than a rotation option.
Born on 26 July 1998, Darrien is 28 years old, stands 191cm (6′3″) tall and weighs 111kg.
