I think that us a big understatement. More relevant is, is there a worse fullback starting in any if the super 8's sides? No there isn't. Is it good enough to get by, probably, but it is hardly reflective of a challenging team.

I should add however, and I know against a low level of opposition, I thought he was excellent yesterday. More with the timing and consistency of his support play, which is something really missed this year throughout the club.

What?
You can't actually be saying you would prefer Hanbury or Gigot or Jowitt

A year or two playing full back could help sutcliffe to become a better stand off later in his career. Will give him a broader experience. John Holmes, Shaun Edwards and Iestyn turned out as pretty useful. Lockyer was OK as well.

Somebody mentioned Hanbury, impresses me every time I see him. Cracking attacking player.

Hanbury is a million miles ahead of what we have. Have you watched outside of Leeds? And yes I would also have Jowitt also, who looks destined for big things.

You don't half over exaggerate with your constant "million miles".

"They are/he is a million miles ahead of what we are/have"

"We are a million miles behind them"

"We are a million miles away from being competitive"

Do you know how far a million miles actually is? You're like a numerically dyslexic Proclaimer.

Apologies numbers are not your strong point, I forgot about the previous stats history. A million miles is a saying, and just for you, means a long way. Therefore the statement stands correct, in my opinion. Hope that makes things clearer. As you were.

Even a year or two would help him, as he could develop his skills with significantly less pressure.
Look at Micheal Morgan, who imo has a very similar playing style

If you seriously think Max Jowitt or Tony Gigot are "a million miles" ahead of Sutcliffe, then there's really no point trying to have a sensible discussion about rugby league

Gigot is a better centre than he is a 1.

Jowitt is a solid prospect, but even in his short time there Sutty has looked as good if not better.

As others have said Hanbury is good but if I recall he also started out as a 6 when he first came over and took at least a year to settle into the 1 spot.

I'm sure it has nothing to do with Gotcha's closeness to Hardaker and not liking someone else doing well in his position in his absence
