Across 16 appearances as a replacement, Lauaki's output is defined almost entirely by his defensive work, averaging close to five tackles per match and reaching 13 in a single game. His carrying numbers are modest, suggesting his primary contribution on arrival is to shore up the defensive line rather than carry ball. When he does get his hands on the ball he tends to make hard yards, but it is his tackling volume that sets him apart in this dataset.
