Across 86 matches, van den Berg shows the steady carry-and-tackle rhythm you expect from a top-tier nine — contributing meaningfully with ball in hand while clocking over five tackles per game. His defensive work rate stands out for a scrum half, with a single-game peak of 18 tackles underlining that he is no passenger when his team is under pressure. Twenty tries across his recorded matches also signal a halfback who is alert to opportunity close to the breakdown.
