Jake Saifiti only played reasonably short minutes for Fiji, but when on the field he played against some of the best middle forwards in the world and was winning the wrestle most of the time.
Frankly, the SOO selected would have noticed that and Jake would now be on their radar. If he can play 60 minutes at that level in the future, they will more than interested.
Jake went to a new level towards the end of last season and in the WC. No one in the WC got the better of him.
No no no Billy, that's not how it works. Once a player has proven themselves they then must wait a mandatory 2-3 year's before they can be considered for selection. It doesn't matter how they perform
