Plumtree's numbers across 16 matches paint the picture of a flanker who earns his minutes through sheer work rate — averaging over seven tackles and more than six carries per game speaks to a player who is constantly involved on both sides of the ball. His try-scoring return adds a genuine attacking threat to that engine-room contribution, while his single-game peaks of 17 carries and 13 tackles suggest he can step up his output significantly when the occasion demands it.
