Coming off the bench for the Blue Bulls across three Currie Cup appearances, Ferreira consistently makes his limited minutes count, averaging over 17 metres per game from fewer than three carries — efficiency that points to a direct, hard-running style. His tackle numbers are equally steady, and his best outing — 44 metres from four carries alongside five tackles — shows he can influence a match at both ends when given the opportunity.
