Across four United Rugby Championship appearances, Swart's tackle numbers stand out as his primary contribution, averaging over four per match and reaching 16 in a single outing — a workload that signals a hooker heavily involved in the defensive structure. His carry numbers are modest on average, though a seven-carry performance shows he can step up as a ball-carrier when the game demands it. The picture is of a forwards-focused, defence-first operator who earns his minutes through grunt work rather than flashy stats.
