Across 55 matches Moerat averages close to eight tackles per game, a workrate that marks him out as one of the more consistently productive defenders in the tight-forward bracket. His carrying numbers are modest by volume but functional, reflecting a lock who earns his minutes through defensive reliability rather than ball-in-hand ambition. A single-game peak of 23 tackles underlines that his ceiling in defence is considerably higher than his already-demanding average.
