Fusitu'a's tackle numbers stand out immediately — averaging eleven per match across eighteen Super Rugby appearances points to a prop who is heavily involved in the defensive structure throughout games. His carrying is consistent rather than explosive, reliably gaining ground on a per-carry basis, and peak performances of twelve carries and twenty-three tackles in a single match show he can shoulder an even greater workload when required. Two tries across the sample add a finishing dimension that is uncommon for a front-rower putting in this volume of defensive work.
