Across 20 matches, Hewat has established himself as a high-volume defensive presence, averaging over seven tackles per game with peaks of 15 in a single outing — a workload that points to a player central to his side's defensive structure. His carrying numbers are consistent rather than explosive, contributing short, reliable metres per game, though his best individual performances show he can take on a greater share of the attacking burden when required. The combination of tries scored and steady ground gain suggests a flanker who contributes meaningfully on both sides of the ball across extended game time.
