Rakuro is a consistently busy presence on the wing, averaging over seven carries and 40 metres per match to suggest he is regularly used as an outlet and ball-carrier rather than a peripheral figure. His tackle numbers are notably high for a back, with a best single-game return of ten tackles pointing to a willingness to put in defensive work well above the typical wing expectation. The combination of reliable carrying volume and defensive contribution across four Super Rugby appearances indicates a player who takes on a full two-way workload on the flank.
