Across 65 matches Thomas has averaged over six tackles per game, with single-game peaks of 18, marking him out as one of the more industrious defensive presences at loosehead prop. His carrying numbers are modest in volume and metres gained, which is typical for a front-rower whose primary contribution is physicality at the breakdown and in the defensive line rather than ball-in-hand impact. The consistency of his workload across more than 2 500 minutes of rugby speaks to his durability and the regularity with which he is called upon in both Challenge Cup and URC competition.
