Across 35 matches as a replacement for the Chiefs, Jacomb has built a reliable profile as a forward who contributes meaningfully in both phases — his tackle count points to a player who defends hard when introduced from the bench. While his per-game carry numbers are moderate, peak performances of 16 carries and 96 metres in a single outing show he can shoulder a genuine ball-carrying load when called upon. Five tries over the dataset add a threat dimension that goes beyond the workmanlike duties his replacement role might suggest.
