Van Jaarsveld is a consistent presence at the set piece and breakdown, contributing steadily with the ball in hand and holding his own defensively across every appearance. His tackle numbers stand out as his most dependable asset, regularly hitting five or more per match and peaking at nine in a single game. His carrying is functional rather than explosive, suggesting a role built around hard work close to the ruck rather than creating yards in open play.
