We'll miss him for sure, he's sheer class the most exciting and entertaining player in the league. Can we still beat saints and hudds without him? Definitely. I don't want him to be rushed back, he's too important to risk a long term absence. I wish Rhys a speedy recovery as well.

Several players really stepped up when Sandow left the field last night including Clark (who was superb) and the much maligned Atkins.

Apart from Atkins going to the wrong man twice in defence, his attack and energy was excellent and that try was brilliant.

Doomed, doomed I tell you!

Did Sandow walk over and clap the fans afterwards? That's a good sign if he did and a good time to see how he was walking/limping. He walked off the field unaided as somebody has already said so I'm hopefully it will only be a couple of weeks out.

He was definitely on the touchline at the end, no crutches. Here's to a quick recovery.

The Atkins try was as cheeky as any I have ever seen!

Can garyhulsefan have a dream about Wire winning the league, GF, me meeting up with Nigella Lawson in the same hotel I pick my Euromillions triple rollover cheque and Shaun Johnson telling us how it is his dream to partner Sandow at Wire.

Done, although it's me with Nigella and the Euromillions.

A bad injuriy to have but a good time to have it.
Were in a position of comfort.
We can benifit as a team greatly by learning to win games without him.
We don't want this Briers Sinfield effect with Sandow.

Worth noting we played 55 minutes without him already. We drew 16-16 after he came off, and bear in mind we played a very conservative 2nd half to save energy knowing we had a comfortable lead. I think we'll be fine. Think Gidley and Ratchford will be a good halfback combo for the time being.

I personally think losing Gidley is worse for us than losing Sandow.

Sandow is exciting to watch, but Gids controls the game. He provides the structure, bosses the forwards, has good game management and the amount of tackles he puts in is remarkable (he's our 3rd top tackler I believe?).

Gids and Ratch is a decent HB pairing with Sandow out, but if it were Gids out I'd be more nervous as Sandow and Ratch are both off the cuff players, we need a General like Gids.

Ratch will hold down the fort whilst MoS Sandow gets a well deserved rest.
