To ply Sandow away from the Bunnies, it will cost some serious coin. He seems to have too many flaws in his game to justify such a long term financial commitment.

We dont even know if the bunnies have made him an offer, could cost peanuts.

I'm with ya SDM.

The Bunnies have NOT made Sandow an offer at all (yet).

If we were to get him for 200k per season or LESS then it would be a fantastic bargain.

He's a half who has proven he can add the 'spark' at NRL level. Why turn up our noses at that?

Is he in the top 10 halfbacks in the comp? Doubtful.

Is he in the bottom 5? Doubtful.

Good enough halfback to play FG and organise the team = perfect!

IF you are saying 'no' to Sandow, please give evidence of a first grade quality halfback that we can REALISTICALLY sign for next season?
For me, ANYTHING is better than Robson again.

There are 16 teams in the comp does this mean he is 11th?

Perhaps if Hayne plays 6
Sandow might be a good option for us.

Then we can chase a genuine top quality 1.
:roll:


Wouldn't it be perfect to keep Hayne at fullback and let him roam at will?

Isn't that kind of the point of getting a 'proper' halfback?!?

Souths are not going to resign him until the last minute

Richardson has already told his manager to look around first and get back to them when he has a serious offer

Could you tell your source to tell the club that 62% of Parra fans on this site dont want Sandow at the club? Thanks.

So he's 11th best?

Shouldn't we stop and say, is the player an upgrade on what we have. Answer is quite simply , yes

The majority of this forum appear to not want anybpdy unless its one of the 3 superstars, we have major issues at 6 aqnd 7, and the first step is improving what we have. Sandow , if signed is a big upgrade, and that is how useless our current halves are, don't see that it should be a do we wan't, don't we want poll.

After all we have nothing worth having in the halves currently.

I wish I could tell them the same thing

Basically who ever was off contract in the Monday Night game that just passed could be on our lists but i noticed the halves were being monitored

just saw murray at parra westfields, along with some other parra boys and humble as well.

man has humble put on some size.. looks very strong and fit and so does murray.

i would put them up before i put sandow at 7

Must be a good trainer.

He puts in so much at training he is to tired to play in games.

Lucky he's not like Fui. I play zero minutes therefore I train zero minutes.

He just looks like one of those guys who would stack on the weight without training, anyhow.

He's got a lot to work on in his game but considering who else is out there on the market yes I'd prefer him than the rest, and yes he's a lot better than Robson and Mortimor.

more than a touch facile to list 5/8s and halfbacks together when talking about the halfback position.

If you think they're easily interchangeable, then you're not qualified comment further on whether or not we need Sandow!
