Scouting Report
✦ Analyst's Take
Consistent carrier with defensive presence

Across 32 matches Simelane shows up as a reliable, high-volume ball carrier whose per-game averages reflect a centre used regularly in the gain-line battle rather than as a peripheral option. His single-game peaks — over a hundred metres and double-digit carries — indicate the capacity to take on a much heavier workload when the game demands it. He contributes defensively too, racking up tackles at a steady rate that underlines his involvement on both sides of the ball.
