Across three Rugby World Cup appearances as a replacement, Tui contributes modest but purposeful ball-carrying, averaging under two carries per game yet generating meaningful metres on contact. His tackle numbers are modest, reflecting the limited minutes a finisher typically sees, though his best outings show he can combine physical carries with defensive work in the same appearance. The data points to a specialist bench role where his value is concentrated into short, direct bursts rather than sustained involvement.
