Best performing uncapped players in SR?

Withy at 6/7, can cover 6 and 8 at a pinch
Kirifi 7
Holland
Beehre
AJ Lam
Tavatavanawai
George Dyer
Lio-WillieOne who I think is yet to hit his straps after a big season last year is Numia. That injury has obviously taken awhile to come back from so is no where near last seasons form but Iād expect him to come right and get back to how he was last year. Williams, EDG and Numia would be a nice trio for loosehead.

Xavier Roe at Half Back.
Wait, what? I know he's been starting a lot but his service has been painfully slow., he's a lean down look around type. He's like a non ginga Christie.
Which uncapped 9 would you select ahead of him?

Hastie is the only other uncapped 9 who has played meaningful minutes... I suppose Preston maybe?

Preston is a bit sloppy under pressure at this stage, so Roe ahead of him for me. I don't have an opinion on Hastie.

Roe definitely the best of the uncapped, but obviously a moot point in terms of the ABs, because there are four capped options who are miles ahead. Funaki would be the highest potential of the active uncapped, but he has been injured all year.

That team sure does have an excellent attack considering they suffer such terrible service then.

Well DMac can sometimes work wonders with slow ball, and Ratima comes on too.
@Crazy-Horse Pffft, I didn't read the parameters of the discussion, I was just rating him in a vacuum.
