Across 94 appearances, Fouche's output is defined above all by his tackling — 562 tackles in total, averaging six per match, with a single-game peak of 14 that speaks to his capacity to dominate defensively when required. His carrying numbers are modest by design, as expected of a tighthead prop, yet he consistently contributes with the ball in hand over a workload stretching past 4 300 minutes of top-level rugby. The combination of high tackle volume and genuine durability across three competitions marks him as a consistently reliable presence in the front row.
