Across 78 matches Hendrikse shows a reliable but measured carrying game, averaging just over two carries per match while still contributing meaningfully in tight spaces. His tackle numbers are the standout — averaging three per match with a single-game peak of nine — pointing to a scrum half who takes his defensive duties seriously rather than sheltering behind the forwards. The seven tries over this sample add an attacking dimension that keeps defences honest around the breakdown.
