Across 30 matches Litterick has built a profile defined almost entirely by his defensive output, averaging 6.5 tackles per game across over 1100 minutes and reaching 16 in a single appearance. His carrying numbers are modest by design, suggesting he is deployed primarily to hold shape and contest at the breakdown rather than generate go-forward ball. The consistency of his tackle counts across both Challenge Cup and United Rugby Championship football points to a player trusted to do the unglamorous work that keeps a defensive line intact.
