Across 15 appearances as a replacement, Chawatama's output is defined almost entirely by his defensive work — averaging over four tackles per outing and peaking at 12 in a single game, he consistently arrives with an impact on the gainline. His carry numbers are modest by design, reflecting a role built around securing the breakdown and disrupting opposition ball rather than generating front-foot metres. The data paints a picture of a specialist impact forward whose value is measured in stops, not strides.
