Across 35 appearances as a replacement, Hurd has built a consistent profile anchored by his defensive work, averaging close to three tackles per outing and accumulating 96 in total across elite competitions. His carrying numbers reflect the limited ball-in-hand time typical of a bench role, though his best individual performances show he can stretch to five carries and nine tackles in a single match when called upon. The two tries add a finishing dimension that rounds out a profile defined above all by disciplined, high-volume defensive contribution.
