Sanconnie's numbers across nine Top 14 appearances paint the picture of a workhorse flanker who earns his minutes through defensive reliability, averaging close to eight tackles per game and peaking at 15 in a single outing. His carrying is measured rather than explosive, contributing consistently without overreaching his role in the forward structure. The combination of high tackle volume and steady ball-in-hand involvement suggests a player trusted to do the unglamorous work that keeps a forward pack competitive.
