Across 19 Super Rugby appearances, he has established himself as a high-volume ball-carrier, consistently racking up over ten carries and nearly 67 metres per match — numbers that point to a back used prominently in open play rather than parked on the periphery. His six tries and a single-game ceiling of 134 metres and 17 carries show he can impose himself decisively when given opportunity. His tackle contribution is modest but present, reflecting a role built predominantly around attacking output.
