Across three Rugby World Cup appearances as a replacement, Matavesi consistently contributes with ball in hand, averaging nearly five carries per outing and grinding out meaningful metres in limited game time. His peak performance — 13 carries for 39 metres alongside both of his recorded tackles — demonstrates the capacity to dominate a single match from the bench. The carry-heavy profile with modest defensive numbers points to a player used primarily to inject attacking momentum when introduced.
