Across 16 United Rugby Championship appearances, Mulder's output is defined above all by his defensive workload — nearly six tackles per match from scrum half is a notably high return for the position, reflecting consistent involvement in the contact battle. His carrying is measured rather than prolific, averaging under three runs a game, though his best performances show he can step up to six carries when the game demands it. The picture is of a scrum half who earns his minutes through defensive reliability and disciplined game management rather than explosive ball-running.
