Across 24 matches Grobbelaar averages over ten tackles per game, a workload that marks him as a consistent defensive presence at the breakdown and in open play. His carrying numbers are equally telling for a hooker — more than five carries per match with a best single-game output of 15 carries and 26 tackles pointing to an ability to lift his contribution significantly in big moments. Eight tries from the forward pack underline that he is not merely a work-rate player but someone who finds the line.
