Coming off the bench in the United Rugby Championship, Hughes has built a reputation as a high-volume tackler, averaging nearly seven tackles per appearance across his 12 matches — a figure that peaks impressively at 12 in a single game. He is no passenger with ball in hand either, having crossed for three tries while consistently gaining ground through his carries. His numbers paint the picture of a replacement who arrives with immediate impact on both sides of the ball.
