Across 21 appearances, Sorin has built a profile defined more by defensive consistency than attacking output, averaging over three tackles per match and demonstrating the capacity to step up significantly when required — his best single outing yielded eight tackles and 25 metres from four carries. His carrying numbers are modest but functional for a prop, reflecting a role focused on set-piece and defensive duties rather than ball-in-hand volume. The single try across this sample adds a finishing dimension, but his reliability across Champions Cup, Challenge Cup and Top 14 competition is the clearest takeaway.
