Gazzotti functions as a high-volume workhorse at number eight, combining consistent ball-carrying with a tackle count that places him among the busier defenders in his position across top-level competition. His per-match averages reflect a player trusted to do the hard yards repeatedly rather than in flashes, while his best individual performances show he can push well beyond those averages when the game demands it. The five tries across 25 matches add a finishing dimension to what is otherwise a profile built on grunt work and defensive reliability.
