Across 23 matches, Jolmes has established himself as a high-volume workhorse in the tight, consistently delivering both with ball in hand and in the defensive line. His tackle numbers stand out most — averaging 6.6 per match with a single-game peak of 20 — pointing to a lock who takes on significant defensive responsibility week in, week out. While his carrying is steady rather than explosive, the volume is reliable and his best outings show he can shoulder a heavier load when required.
