Across 17 matches, Roche has been a consistent presence in the Stormers midfield, averaging close to five carries and over five tackles per game — numbers that point to a player equally committed in both directions. His defensive output is particularly notable, with a single-game high of 12 tackles underlining his capacity to shoulder a heavy workload when needed. He covers ground efficiently as a ball-carrier, suggesting a centre who earns his metres through smart running rather than volume alone.
