Across 32 matches as a replacement, Preston has shown consistent defensive contributions, averaging three tackles per outing with a single-game peak of 11, suggesting he arrives with purpose and urgency when called upon. His carry numbers are modest by design — that is the nature of a bench role — yet his nine tries across the dataset point to a player who converts his limited touches into meaningful outcomes. When given room, he can make it count, as his best single-game return of 84 metres from nine carries demonstrates.
