Waqaniburotu's tackle numbers stand out as his defining contribution — averaging 8.5 per match across four Rugby World Cup appearances, with a single-game peak of 10, he operates as a tireless defensive presence at the breakdown and beyond. His carrying is steady rather than explosive, averaging 16.3 metres per match, though his best outing demonstrates he can lift significantly when the game demands it. Across 320 minutes of World Cup rugby, he offers Fiji reliable, high-effort work at the base of the scrum.
