Scouting Report
Analyst's Take
Consistent work-rate across all phases

Across 14 matches de Witt averages over four carries and four-and-a-half tackles per game, pointing to a flanker who contributes reliably on both sides of the ball rather than dominating in one area. His carry numbers are steady rather than explosive, but peak outputs of 12 carries and 14 tackles in a single match show he can lift his engine significantly when the game demands it. That balance of consistent availability and the capacity for high-intensity performances defines his value as a link between the forwards and the defensive line.
