Crothers is defined by his defensive output, averaging over nine tackles per match across his seven URC appearances — a volume that points to a player central to Ulster's breakdown and gain-line containment. His carrying numbers are modest but consistent, suggesting a role built around off-the-ball graft rather than ball-in-hand impact. When called upon, his peak of 21 tackles in a single match underlines the ceiling of his defensive contribution.
