Across 22 appearances, McCormick has built a consistent profile as a workhorse hooker, contributing steadily in both phases without dominating either. His tackle numbers stand out as his most reliable trait, averaging over four per match with a single-game peak of eleven, suggesting he is frequently called upon as a defensive anchor. His carrying is functional rather than explosive, though his best individual outings — up to thirteen carries in a match — show the capacity to take a greater share of the load when required.
