Across 47 matches, Riccioni's tackle volume stands out as his most defining trait, averaging close to five per game with a single-match peak of 13, marking him as a consistently high-output defender at prop. His carrying role is measured rather than dominant, but the efficiency of his workload across more than 1,500 minutes suggests a player built for sustained impact over explosive bursts. A single try and steady metres gained round out a profile centred firmly on defensive reliability and structural grunt work.
