Scouting Report
Analyst's Take
Industrious carrier with consistent defensive presence

Across 45 matches Goosen shows a consistently high workload with the ball in hand, averaging nearly six carries per game and accumulating well over a thousand metres in total — numbers that point to a fly half who is heavily involved in his team's attacking structure rather than sitting on the periphery. His tackling numbers are equally telling, averaging more than four per game with a single-match peak of 16, suggesting he is expected to contribute meaningfully in defence rather than operating as a pure playmaker. The combination of reliable carries and disciplined defensive work paints a picture of a fly half built around durability and involvement across all phases.
