Coming off the bench across five World Cup appearances, Van Lill consistently contributes in both phases — averaging over five carries and close to four tackles per match suggests a player trusted to make an immediate physical impression. His best outings show genuine peak output, with nine carries and seven tackles in a single game highlighting the ceiling of his impact role. The balance between his carrying and defensive numbers points to a versatile forward who earns minutes through hard work across the full 80.
