Gorrissen's numbers across five matches paint a clear picture of a workhorse flanker who prioritises defensive output above all else — his tackle average of 7.4 per game, with a peak of 14 in a single outing, signals consistent front-foot defensive presence. His carrying is measured rather than explosive, averaging under four carries a match, which points to a role built around structure and availability rather than individual ball-running. The combination of high tackle volume and controlled involvement suggests a player whose value lies in reliability and work-rate across the full 80 minutes.
