Mamukashvili's tackle numbers stand out immediately — averaging over six per match across his sample tells you he is heavily involved in defensive structure and rarely hides. His carrying is measured rather than prolific, but peak games of nine carries and 23 metres show he can step up his ball-carrying contribution when the match demands it. Across eight appearances and over 340 minutes, his workload remains steady, pointing to a hooker who contributes reliably on both sides of the ball.
