Across 11 appearances as a replacement, Wycherley consistently contributes more through his defensive work than his carry volume, averaging 3.5 tackles per match and peaking at 8 in a single outing. His carrying numbers are modest — under three per game — suggesting his primary impact when introduced is to stabilise the breakdown and defensive line rather than generate momentum with ball in hand. The consistency of that tackle output across Champions Cup and United Rugby Championship rugby points to a reliable, low-risk option in the tight-loose exchanges late in matches.
