What a kick in the guys for Sandow! His teammates are having a break and he's going to be at Wenty.
Big call for Kearney to single him out like this. Hope he knows what he's doing.

i DO NOT think Sandow playing for Wenty is a good thing. to me, its like kicking a guy when he is clearly down on confidence. If he truly wanted to go home, the club should have let him, like many players are this weekend - it did wonders for him last year with Souths after he went home mid-season

agree

Probably wants him to gain some confidence there, but gee it could back fire as well

Mate he's not a 14 year old school kid and nor should he be treated like one by us worrying about a little embarrassment. He's on close to half a million a year and is a professional athlete who is under performing. It's only a bit of media speculation that is even suggesting that Sandow might not want to play on the weekend.
If he deserved a well earned rest he would be getting one but the facts are he's not. Everyone can see it and Sterlo's recent comments have added fuel to the fire that he's not at a level of fitness that he needs to be. I say good on Kearney for not being concerned with what the media, team or speculators on this site think and for making decisions he feels will improve things whether they are seen as popular or not. I'm sure it's one of the main reasons he's there.


That`s fine. I still think it`s the wrong move. Is that okay?

I know I'll get howled down for this but it is my opinion that, unless Sandow has agreed to do this and will have his break when we get the bye later on, the move shows a total misunderstanding of more traditional indigenous people.
Shame and disrespect mean a hell of a lot more to them.

I don't get it.

Shaming him publicly is probably not the smartest way to get the best out of him if he is like most indigenous people from small, remote communities.

In saying that we don't know the full story and Kearney may have asked Chris to play this week and promised him the time off in a couple of weeks when we have the bye and Chris may have been cool with that and not felt like he was being belittled or shamed.
