Across 13 Super Rugby appearances as a replacement, Thomas has built a profile centred on direct ball-carrying, averaging over 13 metres per match from a modest number of touches — a rate that points to consistent line-breaking ability when introduced. His tackle contributions are steady without being prolific, suggesting his primary value lies in providing go-forward rather than defensive heavy-lifting. His best outings show he can reach eight carries and five tackles in a single game, indicating he is capable of meaningful impact when given extended minutes.
