Across five appearances as a replacement, Huchet contributes more as a defensive presence than a ball-carrier, averaging over two tackles per outing while his carrying numbers remain modest. His best single game — six tackles and 11 metres from two carries — shows he can step up physically when called upon. He operates in limited minutes, but his tackle count suggests a player who makes his presence felt on defence when introduced.
