Across 24 matches Louw's tackle numbers stand out as his clearest contribution, averaging close to four per game and peaking at 12 in a single outing — a workload that points to a prop used heavily in defensive structure. His carrying is modest in volume and gain, reflecting a role built around set-piece and contact-area graft rather than ball-in-hand ambition. The consistency of that defensive output across multiple competitions underlines how reliably he fulfils the unglamorous but essential work a front-row demands.
