Across 11 Currie Cup appearances, Gumede's output is defined by his tackling workload — averaging close to four tackles per match and peaking at 13 in a single game, which points to a prop relied upon primarily for defensive grunt. His carrying numbers are modest in volume and gain, reflecting the limited ball-in-hand role typical of a forward used to hold the line rather than break it. Two tries across the sample show he can contribute at the coalface when opportunity arises, but defence is clearly the cornerstone of his game.
