Report from Australia rover put in bid for Chris. Sandow to take Burns place

Just read he could be another one with baggage Peter Sterling urged the Eels to get rid in March this year said he was a troubled guy whatever that means having said that he has had good season this year with them

Id love us to land Chrissy Sandow

Cant see it, he is reported to be on over 500K AUD, he has two years left on his contract that would take up a 5th of your salary cap, despite his form and troubles he would still be a much sought after player in the NRL.

More chance of Carney, but I reckon that's also unlikely.

Sandow could be a great player in the ESL, but he has poor defence and goes off script far too often for the NRL.
He's a bit like Jamie Soward in that he has great attacking skills that can turn a match in the blink of an eye.
I don't think many NRL clubs want him though, because he is more a gifted individual than a good team player.

I cant see it either but I couldnt see Luke Walsh coming over, maybe some of Sandows wage will be picked up by is current club ala Walsh It costs nothing to dream.

Top quality half backs don't play for pocket change.
Sandow is top quality.
I for one would not give a hoot how much we had to pay him.

Believe it on the parramatta fans forum they fancy KK,they feel he would fit in their system better,maybe some sort of part ex deal ?

Hope so. Great news if this comes off.

If we lose keating we'll be recruiting a 6,7 & 9 for next year. Finding 3 quality players for those positions would be tough. I'd keep keating, try him at 9 and try to find a decent 6 from somewhere. Haven't got a clue from where though.
