Across three Rugby World Cup appearances as a replacement, Picamoles consistently provides a physical ball-carrying threat, averaging nearly 25 metres per outing and peaking at 46 metres in his best performance. His 20 carries over 115 minutes reflect a focused, high-intensity role designed to shift momentum in the second half. He also contributes defensively, chipping in with ten tackles across the sample to ensure he is not a one-dimensional impact player.
