He's being talked up because he is literally the only decent half souffs have had since about 1999

If Sutton is getting 255k or less a year. And I think he is. He counts for 0 against the cap. Signing Sutton (or not signing him) had 0 impact on our ability to get Sandow.

Sandow is only being talked up by the haters because he left. He had his positives, but he also had plenty of flaws. A hole in defense. Not a great passer for a halfback. Yes he had that magic play up his sleeve. But he was far too inconsistent, and because of him our team has been inconsistent through a 26 round season.


Oh so now it is Sandow’s fault that 50uff$ have been crap since forever? You were labelling him and Sutton as potentially the best halves combo in the comp last year and now your attitude has taken a 180.

The assumption from 50uff$ supporters that he is getting 550k per season at Parra is laughable. The Eels have refuted this before. He is probably getting less at Eels but it is well worth it to escape a losing culture.

So now its his fault that you were inconsistent last year? I thought it was your injuries.

Lol that sarasassyderp gets dumber with every post "Roosters will do what they do ever year" what's that, beat Souffs? Lol

Can someone translate the following post for me because I don't understand derp.

As for you dirtbrain. I have no problems with tough folks. You like your game tough , no problems. However i would NOT expect you to EVER complain of any tough play from any other player. I look forward to a Rooster going down and you applauding the tough play of the opponent. Get used to that this year , as you have a creampuff team. You got it bitch!

Oh the f**king irony. You wouldn't hear a bad word about Sandud until he signed with the slugs.

Players with the long service exemption can only have 100k reduced against the cap.

Sandow may have contributed to 50% of our points, but 90% of our points conceded were due to him being targeted in defence.

He was definitely an imbalance in the side

I'll also note that the team fell apart completely when Sutton got injured and Sandow was left to run the team. He also didn't report for training in the last week when we were preparing for the game against the Knights

Valid points BranVan but one player isn't the reason you didn't make the 8.
