Coming off the bench across Challenge Cup and Top 14, Gouzou consistently makes his presence felt on both sides of the ball — his tackle numbers in particular stand out for a replacement, averaging over six per appearance with single-game peaks of 22. He combines that defensive workrate with purposeful ball-carrying, regularly pushing past 20 metres gained per outing and demonstrating the capacity to shift momentum when introduced. Over 680 minutes of action, his numbers reflect a player who reliably contributes in the tight, physical exchanges that define his role.
