  • Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.

Outlook

With a Rating of 41.8, Harding carries the 18th-highest potential of the full-backs in the Premiership of 41 — though on just 8 appearances this season, so the standing rests on a small sample. Defensively he reads as moderate defensive volume (2.94 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). At 20 the trajectory points up — potential sits near its ceiling (98/100) and market value should climb as minutes and output follow.
