Across 37 appearances, Mulder's tackle numbers stand out as the defining feature of his game — averaging 5.7 per match with a single-game peak of 18, he carries a significant defensive workload for a scrum half. His carry volume is modest and purposeful rather than expansive, suggesting a role built around control and structure at the base of the ruck. The combination of high minutes and consistent defensive output points to a player trusted to do the unglamorous work that keeps his team organised.
