Hepburn's tackle output stands out as his defining contribution, averaging four and a half tackles per appearance across 14 matches — a rate that underlines his immediate defensive impact when introduced from the replacements bench. His carrying numbers are modest in both volume and gain, suggesting his priority on arrival is disrupting the opposition rather than generating go-forward ball. When conditions demand it, he is capable of stepping up considerably, as his single-game peaks of twelve tackles and five carries demonstrate.
