Across 70 appearances, Stewart has built a profile defined by consistent volume on both sides of the ball — averaging nearly nine tackles and close to seven carries per match across more than 3,200 minutes of action. His try-scoring return of 34 is unusually high for a hooker, pointing to a player who arrives at the breakdown and in close-range situations with genuine intent. Single-game peaks of 20 tackles and 18 carries underline that his averages are no ceiling — he is capable of shouldering a significantly heavier load when the match demands it.
