Across 72 matches Lake averages nearly eight carries and close to eight tackles per game, a combination that marks him out as a genuinely two-way threat at hooker rather than a specialist in one phase. His 21 tries from the position underline how consistently he arrives in space as a ball-carrier, while single-game peaks of 22 carries and 23 tackles suggest he can shoulder a significantly heavier workload when the match demands it.
