Quote ="Exeter Rhino"Liam Sutcliffe is fast turning into the new Lee Smith. Unless he can play his way back into the team with a bit of form or we get a major injury crisis I think his days of being a regular starter are numbered.
I think his best position is in the back-row where he is capable of playing long minutes without standing out, but when everyone is fit I don't see him breaking into the first team. Cameron Smith has already overtaken him in the first few games of this season. I'm still not sure what the coaching staff want Sutcliffe to be. At least Donaldson has a simple role and shows a lot of heart and application.
Sutcliffe looked good (but not great) at full-back in a spell under Brian Mac, but last season I recall he looked lost when asked to play there. Let's stick with Myler, he earned another chance.'"
He wishes he was the new smith.
