He certainly punches above his weight. Got a top class attitude. Needs to put on some muscle though if he is to make it in the top level

This season I just give thanks we’ve had any “season” at all. All clubs have pulled together and put the effort in to get us something to watch and support. Has it been the best quality? No, but I’m thankful all the same.

On the team front, we have had a quantum shift in attitude and ethics. I love that the club has gone above and beyond supporting the wider community, got behind the incredible Masoe story and of course our own Rob Burrow. I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again, we are stronger together and more unites us than divides us.

Recruitment is needed, nothing ridiculous but we do need some upgrades in certain areas prop for certain, but we have certainly punched above our weight in games and have shown a great team spirit through adversity. Losing games like last night will hopefully focus a few minds and will come in handy as a motivational tool in the future.

All in all, a solid 8/10 season, played some brilliant rugby, played some dumb rugby, but we’ve now got teams looking over their shoulders and fanbases gnashing their teeth, we’re not back, but were not done yet either.

Onwards to 2021!

Been impressed with him yes , in just a handfull of games his improvement level has gone up in a way i never expected and i think he has the attitude to go on to become a first team regular .

In Alex Sutcliffe I see a lot of Carl Ablett. I think Alex looks set to have a good long career with us. Not one of the "stars" but always consistent.

If we were making any big signings we'd have done it by now. There's no quality available from NRL and with Covid probably no money for a domestic transfer. Rather than recruitment I would say improving our awful kicking game would be the top priority. It almost looks like we deliberately put uncontested kicks up to try and win a territory battle. In recent games we've been under so much pressure from high kicks.

He definitely needs to fill out but how much more will he as he's nearly 22.Jury still out for me but i do like his attitude.

Look at the amount of timber Cam Smith has out in in the last 12 months (too much for me I’d say). He’s the same age.

With a full off season and hopefully a positive impact from Sean Long working with the backs we’ll see where we get to soon enough.

Nah, Smith was one of the best forwards in the league pre lockdown. I'm not sure Sutcliffe has the frame to put on more timber, to be honest.

Sutcliffe is 185cm and 88kg, Smith is 183cm and 101kg.

I’d have said both should be around 95kg to be the right balance of size and mobility.
