Hunt's tackle numbers stand out sharply across his eight URC appearances, averaging nearly nine per match and peaking at 17 in a single game — figures that point to a prop who carries heavy defensive responsibility beyond the set piece. His carrying work is steady rather than dominant, contributing around six metres per outing, though a best of 18 metres in one match shows he can make ground when called upon. Across nearly 400 minutes of championship rugby, the consistency of his defensive output marks him as a reliable, high-workload forward.
