Across 45 matches, Poirot's tackle numbers stand out as his most defining feature — nearly eight per game across a range of top-level competitions, with a single-game peak of 16 that signals the capacity to dominate contact in big moments. His carrying is measured rather than prolific, averaging just over three per outing, which points to a prop used primarily to hold the line and disrupt rather than to gain ground. The four tries across this dataset add a finishing dimension that is uncommon for a forward carrying at his modest volume.
