I am not convinced on Sandow, he doesn't seem a serious player and always seems to be messing around or playing the fool off the pitch. He plays a good game but looks for the showmanship rather than basic play, I just hope I am wrong on him when he comes back

In all honesty ,Sandow looks good at SL standard, but if he really was "that good" he would be plying his trade in NRL as would all imports from down under.

As opposed to Mike Cooper, for example, who looked good (on a favourable day) at SL standard but has been outstanding in the NRL? Or Phil Blake who was a very good utility player in the NRL but absolutely superb for us? One size doesn't fit all, and the expansiveness of the English game probably suits Sandow more than thirteen-man robot it's a knockout NRL-a-thon.

And, frankly, when Sandow is getting bagged, I know we've hit rock bottom as a fanbase.

Gidley & Sandow - best HB partnership in SL? Winners of the SL player of the month awards consecutively? Ringing any bells?

Sandow was a scapegoat for the ills at his club in the NRL.

He is very definitely good enough to be still playing in Australia. Whether he would want to though is a different matter.

I think it's probably that Sandow is very suited to our preferred style of play,when we have the bodies to be able to fire on all cylinders.

Ha ha seriously If sandow was that good he would still be in the nrl??

No he was scapegoated for eels poor performances by fans and media!! He was singled out for criticism by sterling, eels royalty and was being asked to playi in away he was not comfortable with and went against his natural game.

He was a massive signing for paramatta at the time and was believed he alone would restore the glory they had during the 80s probably would have if they adapted to him rather than asking him to adapt to them!!

Sandow has already proved himself to be one of, if not the, most skillful and exciting players in Super League. He has the X-Factor that gets you on the edge of your seat every time he gets the ball and is one of those players who can make the best defenses look stupid.

Personally, I couldn't care less whether or not he is good enough to still be playing in the NRL, whether he was forced out of Parramatta because of his attitude or salary cap issues or whether he picks his nose. I'm just thankful that he wears Primrose & Blue.

You must be a right bundle of fun. Cheer up man. Must check Sandow's contract ... fancy any player playing with a smile on his face and playing the fool of it.
