Scouting Report
✦ Analyst's Take
Relentless workhorse in the tight

Across 47 matches Grobler has built a profile defined by defensive consistency, averaging over seven tackles per game with a single-match peak of 18 — the kind of output that signals he is a reliable pillar in the collision. His carrying numbers are steady rather than explosive, contributing on a near-five-carries-per-game basis, while six tries across the dataset show he is not absent from the scoresheet when opportunities arise near the line. The overall picture is of a lock who earns his minutes through sustained physical effort on both sides of the ball.
