Across 21 matches, Bochaton's output is defined above all by his defensive workrate — averaging over nine tackles per game, with a single-match peak of 16, he functions as a high-volume defensive pillar at the breakdown and in open play. His carrying numbers are consistent rather than explosive, contributing reliable forward metres each outing without dominating ball-in-hand. The combination points to a flanker trusted to do the unglamorous work that keeps his side competitive across multiple competitions.
