Nxele is a consistent presence in the Boland midfield, contributing steadily with the ball in hand and holding his own in defence across all 12 Currie Cup appearances. His carrying numbers suggest a player who works hard within the team's system rather than seeking spotlight moments, while his tackle output points to a centre who takes his defensive responsibilities seriously.
