Scouting Report
✦ Analyst's Take
Disciplined defender anchoring the tight exchanges

Across eight appearances for the Cheetahs, Manyama's workload reflects the unglamorous but essential demands of a prop — modest ball-carrying involvement offset by consistent defensive output, averaging over two tackles per match. His best performances show he can step up when called upon, peaking at seven tackles and five carries in a single game. He operates as a reliable set-piece and defensive presence rather than an attacking force.
