Cannon's output across four Championship matches paints the picture of a flanker who anchors both sides of the ball, averaging over eight tackles per game while consistently taking the ball to hand. His carrying numbers suggest he is used as a reliable option in tight phases rather than a line-breaker, accumulating metres steadily across high volumes of contact. In his best performances he has pushed into double figures for both carries and tackles in the same match, underlining the consistency of his workload rather than isolated moments of impact.
