Across 17 matches in Challenge Cup and Currie Cup rugby, Annies has established himself as a reliable ball-carrier, averaging close to six carries and nearly 48 metres per game from the wing. His eight tries across the dataset reflect a genuine threat in attack, while his peak outputs of 14 carries and 112 metres in a single game indicate he can take on a significantly heavier workload when required. His tackle contributions are modest but steady, consistent with a wing asked primarily to create and finish rather than defend.
Michael stands 176cm (5′9″) tall and weighs 85kg.
