Scouting Report
✦ Analyst's Take
Carries hard, scores when it counts

Across 48 appearances Hopkins has built a profile of a wing who contributes consistently with ball in hand, averaging over 25 metres per carry opportunity and racking up more than 1 200 metres in total. His nine tries across that sample reflect an ability to convert involvement into points, while peak outputs of 136 metres and 16 carries in a single match highlight the ceiling of his attacking threat. His tackle numbers are modest by positional standards, which is typical for a wide man used primarily as an offensive weapon rather than a defensive anchor.
