Early tip: Sandow won't see out his contract

[Chipmunk]

Don't get your first question makes no sense...

Um anyone in there right mind would stay well clear of Parra even I would, hence why I said persist with Sandow until round 6 or so next year.

Yea they did, and guess what I rate Norman but never have and or will rate Wallace. I'll agree to disagree with you.

My first question is who are the quality dominating halfbacks in the NRL?

 

[Parra Pride]

Kris Keating? Peter Wallace? Brett Finch?

Heard Ricky wants to bring Owen Craigie out of retirement.

 

[jason taylor]

He also said mortz would be our long term 7

Yep, Sterling has never rated Sandow and always lays the boot into him.

Taking Wallace or persisting with Kelly would be a step backwards from Sandow imo.

Poor Sterlo :lol:

Daley Cherry Evans, Cooper Cronk, Adam Reynolds to name a few.

You can add Mitchell Pearce to that list. (Pity he can't do anything at origin level) And surprise surprise the teams with dominating halfbacks make up which positions on the ladder? 1,2,3 and 4

Kris Keating? Peter Wallace? Brett Finch?

We have tried two of those before

 

[Chipmunk]

Daley Cherry Evans, Cooper Cronk, Adam Reynolds to name a few.

And none of them are coming here.

Those halfbacks are benefitting significantly from their team's ability to win the wrestle and control the ruck.

Thanks Einstein, hence why I'm suggesting we persist with what we have.

Agreed. Which is why I believe sandow would be just as good if we didn't have such soft merkin forwards. Sandow is not the problem and he offers a shitload more than Kelly or Api

Well that option hasnt done us any good so far.

I would call none of them dominating halfbacks but surprise surprise they all look good playing a very defined role in strong top 4 squads

 

[BennyBoy]

Sandow is the best we have and is the best available as of now, we are just paying him too f##king much for what he's delivering. That said I can't see the point of subsidising his salary by forcing him out until we can replace him with better and Kelly is certainly not better.

I think Cooper Cronk is a quality dominating halfback. The other 3 mentioned I dont think are though

dominating/ very good, whatever you want to call it. Which is why i added this

[Poupou Escobar]

I reckon Pearce is as good a player as Cronk, and I rate both of them. But neither is a patch on some of the quality playmakers currently wearing the 6 jersey (Thurston, Carney, Marshall).

I would have to disagree with Cronk not being as good as Carney and Marshall. I dont think Mitchell Pearce is anywhere near as good as Cooper Cronk.

 

[I bleed blue & gold]

A lot of people underrate Cronk, he may not be blessed with as much talent that Marshall, Carney and JT have, but he damn sure makes up for that with how he plays the game. He is the most consistent out of those three.

 

[strider]

i'm a massive cronk fan ... i was dissapointed years back when it was rumoured we had a shot at signing him but didnt
