I thought Sue was awesome off the bench today.

He's been ordinary most of the year but I think a lot of that is down to him being turned into an edge backrower and playing more minutes than he should.

He had a good combination with Twal off the bench and I think if he can give us 30-35 minutes of that quality every week he'll be a perfect bench prop.
 
A couple of good runs today. Unfortunately thats the highlight of his year, and im confident enough to say he wont back that up.
 
Bench is his spot…

Would help solve a puzzle piece if he can continue with that..
 
That's the most aggression I have seen from him for a long time, hope he keeps it up next year.

It was his best game of the year. It was still pretty average.

I disagree, I thought Sue was really strong today, surprised me. Even his defence, which is usually where he struggles, he made some really strong hits amd giod cover. A few of his hits caused Titans real trouble, one forced a loose carry.

Whatever Cleary did for Sue's game today, I hope it continues.
 
He's had some back issues this season and I think the week off last week has helped it settle down. I prefer him off the bench, he seems to play with more energy, hits the line hard and offers more impact. With Packer and Matulino likely to start in the front row, McQueen and Lawrence/Aloiai in the backrow, I'd have Eisenhuth start at lock, Sue on the bench makes a lot of sense.

Willow, where would you fit Elijah into all of this?

I don't know. Arguably you could stick him on one edge ahead of Lawrence, but Taylor is less threatening in attack IMO. I think McQueen, provided he recovers well from neck surgery, definitely starts next year. Lawrence, depending on his body, and Taylor (if he sticks around) are vying for the other. I think Aloiai offers more than both in attack due to his size and ability to poke through the line, but similar to Sue, I think Aloiai is best served coming off the bench for a bit more energy and impact.
