Coming off the bench, McLoughlin consistently contributes both with and without the ball, averaging over six carries and six tackles per appearance across his three URC outings. His best individual performance — 14 carries for 57 metres alongside eight tackles — demonstrates the kind of concentrated, high-intensity output that defines an effective replacement. His workrate in limited minutes suggests he makes the most of his time on the field on both sides of the ball.
