Across nine appearances as a replacement, Heinz has operated with a deliberately minimal footprint — averaging just over a carry per game and under a metre gained, reflecting the controlled, low-risk nature of his bench role. His defensive output is similarly measured, though a single-game high of three tackles shows he can contribute when required. The data paints a picture of a scrum-half brought on to manage rather than to spark.
