Across 35 appearances, Hounkpatin contributes consistently in the tight phases, averaging close to four tackles per match with a single-game peak of ten — a figure that speaks to genuine defensive workrate for a front-rower. His eight tries from 90 carries underline a real threat around the fringes, converting contact into points at a rate that stands out for his position. The volume of minutes accumulated across three competitions confirms he is a regular fixture rather than a rotation option.
