Across 31 appearances, McCallum has built a profile defined by his consistency in the contact area, averaging over five tackles per match and peaking at 17 in a single outing — figures that point to a prop who shoulders significant defensive workload. His carrying numbers are modest but purposeful, with a best of 8 carries for 22 metres in a game suggesting he can impose himself when called upon. Five tries over this stretch add a dimension that goes beyond the expected scope of a front-row forward.
