Across 87 matches and nearly 4000 minutes of action, Van Staden has built a profile defined by consistency in both phases — averaging over six tackles and more than five carries per game across competitions ranging from URC to international rugby. His defensive output is his most striking trait, with a single-game peak of 20 tackles underlining an ability to dominate that channel when required. The try return of 12 across this dataset shows he also converts his carrying into genuine threat at the gainline, not merely volume.
