Across five URC appearances, More has made his mark primarily as a defensive presence, averaging close to four tackles per match and contributing to a reliable defensive structure in the Lions midfield. His carrying numbers are modest in volume but efficient, with his best single outing showing he can take the ball up powerfully when called upon — 57 metres from seven carries in one game stands well above his typical workload. The data points to a centre used in a controlled, duties-first role rather than as a primary ball-carrier.
