Belo's match data from the Rugby World Cup tells a clear story: his value is almost entirely defensive, averaging seven tackles per game with a single-match peak of thirteen. His carry count is minimal and yields no metres gained, indicating he is deployed primarily as a defensive unit rather than a ball-carrying threat. Within that role, his tackle output is consistent and high-volume for a forward across his recorded appearances.
