Across 64 matches Koch has established himself as a steady defensive presence, averaging 3.4 tackles per game and reaching as high as 13 in a single outing — numbers that speak to consistent work-rate from the replacements bench. His carrying game is measured rather than dominant, but a best single-game haul of 9 carries and 25 metres shows he can impose himself physically when the moment demands it. Four tries across the dataset add a finishing dimension that rounds out a profile built primarily on reliable, low-ego graft.
