I can smell the fear almost 5000 miles away...
It's funny how many times people hang our late season performances last year on Sandow. Because he came over with all that media attention and cost more than most, I think other teams support expected him to single handedly win us the GF. Fact is he came over having been let go from his last team with bad blood and being panned by the Aussie press and he joined a team dead in the water with no cohesion and maybe a handful of decent attacking sets all year.
I guess it's easier to keep banging on about last season than to eat your own words (to be fair: there's a lot of them to eat...)

| Despite most the fear the OP is showing in his post, The main thing I'm laughing at is how he said he can't post this on our board because of how intolerant we are ha ha ha..
Coming from the ones whos mods dish out bans like Virgin media dish out junk mail... I've been banned from their board for years just for disagreeing with someone on a post about golden boy Tomkins..

| Don't buy the bit about buying Jordan Cox making us a team unable to win anything, yet the team that bought Willie Isa are the clear favourites.
There's a difference between our signings of prospects such as Cox, Russell and Hughes over the past few years, and picking up the scraps of Wakefield and Widnes for Tautai and Isa, both of who and bang average.

| It does not matter to me in the slightest what others think about our team or players. It's results on the field that matter. Remember we have form at this ourselves when we bag quality players of other sides, no surprise when we get it back.

| Quite right. As Humphrey Bogart famously said to Katharine Hepburn " Quite frankly my dear I don't give a damn"

Hi Chas,
The quote that you have given was from Clark Gable to Vivien Leigh.......However I agree with the principle of your message, regarding negative posts from fans who would welcome Chris Sandow if their club could AFFORD him.
Regards

| We're in one of them situation's we've seen with other teams, when saints first got walsh, leeds got ben walker, lauititi and brent webb, hull got jason smith where you look at them and go WOW, they've picked up a player who genuinely changes the game and as a fan, you're concerned about how your team can possibly contain them.
Sandow is that sort of player, he's a game changer, potentially a power shifter.

| Don't get it. The topic is largely in favour of us.
People talking about Chris Sandow's inconsistency are just latching on to AUS media, it's not based on actual opinion - it cant be.
Finally, to be fair, I think our most of our own opinions of Cox before he arrived was a bit puzzling so no surprise other fans think this too. He's surprised us all.

Boss, don't take him on, being helpful won't save you.
As Eric Morecambe once said, "there are lies, damned lies and Charlie Winslade's quotation accreditations".

Surprisingly, very positively!
I think it's FOX Aus that have an "Exiles" column. He's been mentioned quite a few times with very complimentary writing in his favour.

| Quote: Fantastic Mr Catpiss "Some Leeds prick on the saints board was saying this yesterday, he goes missing when hus pack is beaten.
Err, did you SEE the second half against Salford ?'"
Luckily it shouldn't be the case too often at Warrington because they've got probably the best forwards in the league. Correct me if I'm wrong but it is one way traffic in the second half against Salford. For all the great things he'll do with ball in hand, he is unquestionably useless in defence.
I've always been a fan of his actually, thought he was hard done by when he got shoved out the back door at Parra. But he's known as a bottle job over here. The thing I mentioned about semi-finals was something that got pointed out to me the other day, quite a worry if you ask me.
