Scouting Report
Analyst's Take
Defensive anchor off the bench

Across nine appearances as a replacement for Ulster, Humphreys has built a profile defined almost entirely by defensive contribution, averaging close to two tackles per outing with a single-game high of six. His carrying involvement is minimal, suggesting his primary value when introduced is to shore up the defensive line rather than carry ball. The consistency of his tackle numbers across Challenge Cup, Champions Cup and United Rugby Championship indicates he fulfils a disciplined, low-risk role whenever called upon.
