Ewers brings consistent high-volume work across both phases of the game, averaging over six tackles and nearly five carries per match across 20 appearances in Champions Cup and United Rugby Championship rugby. His tackle numbers point to a player central to defensive structure, while his carrying load reflects a forward willing to take the ball into contact repeatedly throughout a match. His peak outputs — 21 carries and 13 tackles in a single game — show he can shoulder an even heavier burden when the contest demands it.
