Across four Rugby World Cup matches, Brache's tackle numbers stand out as the defining feature of his game, averaging nine per match and peaking at thirteen in a single outing — a workload that signals a centre used heavily in defensive structure. His carrying is purposeful rather than prolific, consistently gaining ground at a rate that suggests he picks his moments well rather than forcing contact. The combination of high defensive output and steady ball-in-hand contribution points to a player deployed as a reliable, two-way operator in midfield.
