Across 13 United Rugby Championship appearances, Phillips has built his game around consistent defensive work, averaging five tackles per match with a single-game peak of 13 — figures that point to a lock used heavily at the breakdown and in the defensive line. His carrying is measured rather than prominent, averaging two carries per outing, suggesting his primary contribution is structural rather than ball-in-hand. The volume of minutes accumulated underlines his reliability as a forward who holds his shape week to week.
