Couillaud's tackle numbers stand out for a scrum half, averaging 3.6 per match across seven appearances and peaking at nine in a single game — a workrate that points to a player heavily invested in the defensive structure around the ruck. His carrying is measured rather than explosive, contributing consistently without dominating ball-in-hand, which suggests a game built on control and reliability rather than individual impact with the ball. The combination of disciplined defence and steady service patterns makes him a functionally grounded option at nine.
