Ceyte's numbers paint the picture of a lock who earns his minutes through sheer consistency — close to seven carries and six and a half tackles per match across nearly 30 appearances tells you he is perpetually involved on both sides of the ball. His carrying is built on accumulation rather than explosiveness, grinding out metres in the tight phases where locks are expected to do the unglamorous work. When the occasion demands more, he has the ceiling for it, having reached 17 tackles and 15 carries in a single outing.
