Across 29 matches, Hotham demonstrates a high-volume defensive output that is exceptional for a scrum half, averaging nearly seven tackles per game with single-match peaks of 12 — a figure that speaks to consistent frontline involvement rather than peripheral play. His carrying numbers tell a similar story of a nine who engages physically with the game, regularly eating into territory through the contact area and reaching over 60 metres gained in his standout appearances. The combination of reliable tackle counts and purposeful ball-in-hand work marks him as a scrum half who drives the tempo on both sides of the ball.
