Across 55 matches, Coghlan's tackle numbers stand out most sharply — averaging eight per game with a single-match peak of 29, pointing to a hooker who carries genuine defensive responsibility well beyond the set piece. His carrying is steady rather than spectacular, contributing short, consistent metres per game, though his best outings show he can take on a bigger ball-carrying role when required. The volume of minutes logged across two competitions reflects consistent availability and involvement at the heart of the Dragons forward pack.
