Across 28 matches, Bamber's tackle count stands out as his defining contribution — averaging over 13 per game and peaking at 27 in a single outing, he consistently operates at the top end of workload for a forward. His carrying is steady rather than explosive, accumulating metres efficiently across nearly 2,000 minutes of action, which speaks to a player who offers durability and reliability in the tight. That combination of defensive volume and consistent ball involvement marks him as a lock who shoulders a significant share of the physical burden each week.
