Across 39 matches, van Poortvliet consistently contributes both in attack and defence, averaging close to four tackles per game with single-match peaks of 12 — a high workrate for a scrum half. His carrying numbers are steady rather than explosive, suggesting a 9 who serves as a reliable link rather than a primary ball-carrier, yet he has still crossed for five tries across the dataset. The volume of minutes logged points to a player who holds down a starting role and sustains his output over the full course of matches.
