Bartlett's record across his eight Super Rugby appearances is defined by his tackle output, averaging five per game and peaking at eleven in a single outing, which points to a player introduced specifically to shore up the defensive line. His carry numbers are modest, suggesting his primary function as a replacement is to bring physicality in defence rather than ball-carrying momentum. The consistency of his tackling across limited minutes marks him as a reliable defensive option whenever called upon.
