Scouting Report
Analyst's Take
Defensive anchor with tireless work rate

Mpofu's output across four Currie Cup appearances is defined by his defensive commitment, averaging close to six tackles per match and reaching double figures in a single outing. His carrying numbers are modest but consistent, suggesting a lock who prioritises set-piece and defensive duties over ball-in-hand ambition. The combination of high tackle counts and steady minutes on the field points to a reliable, hard-working presence in the tight phases.
