Across 77 matches Herring has built a profile defined by consistent defensive output, averaging over six tackles per game with a single-match peak of 24 that underlines his capacity to dominate when required. His 18 tries from a hooker's role reflect a meaningful attacking threat beyond the set piece, while steady carrying numbers across more than 3,000 minutes point to a player who contributes reliably through the full breadth of his game rather than in isolated bursts.
