Across 14 Super Rugby appearances as a replacement, Prinsep averages over eight tackles per match — a figure that defines his primary value as a defensive presence in tight situations. His carrying numbers are modest but consistent, suggesting a role built around physicality and work rate rather than ball-in-hand creativity. Single-game peaks of 21 tackles and 10 carries indicate he can step up his output significantly when called upon in high-intensity contests.
