Drummond's match data paints a clear picture of a replacement built around defensive output, averaging over three tackles per appearance across his eight Super Rugby outings. His carrying numbers are minimal, reflecting a role focused on winning ball back rather than shifting it, and his best individual game — 11 tackles — underlines the ceiling of that defensive contribution. With 26 tackles logged in under three hours of total game time, his impact when introduced is concentrated and purposeful.
