Hopkins contributes a steady stream of ball-in-hand work across his 14 URC appearances, averaging close to six carries and just under 37 metres per match to underpin Ospreys' attacking play from the back. His four tries across the campaign reflect an ability to convert possession into points, while his peak outputs — 16 carries and 136 metres in a single outing — indicate he can shoulder a significantly heavier running load when called upon. His tackle numbers are modest on average, though he has shown the capacity to defend more actively, suggesting his primary value lies in attack rather than defensive volume.
