Across 75 matches, Cherry's tackle numbers stand out as his most defining trait — averaging nearly six per game and peaking at 18 in a single outing, he brings consistent defensive graft to the contact area. His carrying role is measured rather than dominant, but nine tries from a hooker reflect a player who knows when to exploit space close to the ruck. The volume of minutes accumulated underlines his durability and importance to his side's forward structure.
