Message: [QUOTE="Big Pete, post: 2568850, member: 1899"] Good eye Beads. I believe fans of the move are living in a world of ideals and not reality. First off, Parramatta aren't going to pay a bloke $550K to benefit another club and doubt they'd go any lower than $300K so this scenario of Sandow coming up here on some second tier salary contract where money isn't concern just isn't going to happen. 'Okay whatever, $250K that wasn't going to be used anyways, clearly Sandow is better than nobody'. Not necessarily. Because by bringing Sandow up here there are a lot of implications you need to consider. On the field, you'd have to completely restructure your side to compensate for his flaws and build new combinations to suit his style. This would have been fine if it was the off-season, but bringing him at this point would just be counter-productive and I doubt it'd win him a lot of support from his team mates. Speaking of which, off the field, what kind of influence would he have? Clearly he has a bit of baggage and we've already got a few roughies up here in Barba + Vidot, would Sandow be the straw that breaks the camels back? Look, I don't blame fans for at least considering the idea. Nothing wrong with that, I just hope fans consider all the implications instead of jumping to the move because they don't happen to like the make-shift move of Hoffman to five eigth. [/QUOTE]
