Across 41 matches Lucu stands out primarily as a defensive force, averaging close to six tackles per game with a single-match peak of 17 — figures that point to a scrum half who commits hard beyond the set piece. His carrying numbers are modest by design, but the 530 metres accumulated over the dataset show he picks his moments to make ground effectively. Three player-of-the-match awards across a mixed bag of competitions — Champions Cup, Six Nations, Rugby World Cup, and Top 14 — underline that his best performances translate across the highest levels of the game.
