I think the performances and results against Leeds, Wigan and St Helens; in comparison to other performances would suggest that the players have chosen the matches they have performed in. I think a lot of blame does have to land at the player's doorsteps.

Yes i get your point but we seem to have had a cba attitude at times which suggests all has not been right back at the ranch.

i cant see Chase AND Sandow joining.... surely having them at 6 and 7 would be the rugby equivalent of crossing the streams.

Agree MD. It would be like using the Post Office and DHL to distribute your mail concurrently. You wouldn't know whether your post was coming or going.

Prize for the worst analogy ever right there.

All seems to be building like a tidal wave for him to join you this week. I think the Eels want shut so you'll come to a compromise. He wants $200,000 in image right payments, Eels won't pay it. They want him to walk and give up his current contract. All essentially comes down to whether Warrington want to pay a 'transfer fee' that will satisfy both parties.

Personally I think Warrington would do well to give him space. He must be a mess mentally after the goings on this season, with criticism every week from club legends, Directors, coaches and teammates. Rumours this week that he was confronted by his teammates and told he wasn't welcome. Pressure for that long on one person can't be good and it's good to see Paul Gallen's defense of him in the press over the weekend. The last thing he needs is to be rushed over here, thrown in at the deep end and have a mare.

Sandow isn't a complete player and there are elements in the criticism from Peter Sterling that do ring true. But he's not solely responsible for the failings of the Eels as a club and the pressure they've put on him has been ridiculous.

It was a bit crap.

Bringing in Sandow (or anybody else) at this stage of the season would be nice as it gives them a better chance of hitting the ground running next season. Anything we were to achieve in SL this season would simply be an unexpected bonus IMO.

Bingo.

I'm thinking more and more each day that we should just throw everything into the Challenge Cup.

Sandow deal is done.

£254k per season.

Or it could unsettle the team and spoil our chances of silverware?

Tough call this.

Still not confirmed about this season but bagged for next already.

Where is this info from RD?

I never say pal.

Duckie is actually Simon Moran, I thought everyone had realised that by now.
