Hardly his fault though, he plays for Parramatta. That's like someone slating a Wakefield player for never leading his side to OT. |

Also had four years at Souths and never took them to the playoffs either.
Really worth reading the Aussies' views on him forums.leagueunlimited.com/showt ... 831&page=8
This is a personal favourite: "Do they have internet and phone lines in Warrington? They can access information on players, right? If so, they've got rocks in their heads.
What are the odds of Sandow, a notorious home-sick, alcoholic, inconsistent miscreant going up to the North of England, freezing his off and play his best footy? I wouldn't take 1000-1 odds if you offered them to me.
He's going to get homesick, bored, cabin fever, probably fat, and be back in a year. I'd take any odds on that."

One press conference to announce two players?
Sandow and Jack Hughes? |

its worth taking a risk on a short term deal... if he doesnt settle and goes back, then he goes back.... i would rather we took a punt on someone like Sandow, than signed players like Walsh or Burns... i dont think anyone at our club wants to see that sort of signing.

What's with the hate for Walsh? He is/was a cracking player when he first came over, easily the best halfback in SL. His broken leg was a blow, but nothing we could have predicted. |

Walsh and Burns have the excitement and creativity of a cow in formaldehyde although it did apparently win the Turner Prize (not the Saints centre). |

Souths were still someway into being rebuilt from almost ruin during his time there.. Sandow was lured away to a province of crispy dollar notes like a FIFA official at a Bolshevik ballet.

Funny ,there are still plenty of Parra who are sad to see him go ,the bulldog game probably convinced them it was the end of the road and I understand Russell Crowe wasn't happy when he left souths ,if he'd stuck with them rather than going to Parra ,I'm sure he'd have got to finals

Also, if a player is potentially leaving/leaves in acrimonious circumstances, then the club's fans are less likely to post glowing comments. |

Briers didn't take us to the heights of playoff rugby for years but was still classed as world beater by his fans and also ripped the Aussies apart playing for Wales. Yes play off rugby is the pinnacle but if you have never played play off rugby that doesn't make you poor. |

What are the odds of Sandow, a notorious home-sick, alcoholic, inconsistent miscreant going up to the North of England, freezing his rubbish off and play his best footy? I wouldn't take 1000-1 odds if you offered them to me.
He's going to get homesick, bored, cabin fever, probably fat, and be back in a year. I'd take any odds on that."

That should remind any Saints fan of the comments about one of their legends before he landed....
Jamie Lyon anyone?

Big bonus for Sandow is he will be joining a decent club with a good recent record and fans that love attacking rugby ,if he produces the magic he is capable of ,,he will be loved
