Across 12 Super Rugby appearances, he ranks among the busier ball-carriers at fullback, averaging over nine carries and 51 metres per match — numbers that point to a player regularly involved in open play rather than one who operates on the periphery. His single-game peaks of 17 carries and 109 metres show he has the capacity to take on a much bigger workload when matches demand it. With five tries from 917 minutes, he provides a consistent finishing dimension alongside his carrying output.
