Across nine Top 14 appearances as a replacement, Montgaillard consistently contributes more in defence than in attack, averaging close to eight tackles per match and reaching double figures in his best outings. His carrying numbers are modest, suggesting his primary function when introduced is to shore up the defensive line rather than carry the game forward. The volume of defensive work he puts in relative to his limited minutes points to a player who hits the ground running each time he takes the field.
