Sandow has been given so many chances
1) Drop due to bad performance
2) Did play for so many games = cause of this
3) Rehabilitation = again due to how own "issues"
4) 4 year contract for $550k - so far only 2014 has been of any value
5) Crashing a car - no explanation needed
6) Coming to the club OVERWEIGHT and WITH GAMBLING ISSUES
7) Much more that I'll leave to others
....
Then is manager asks (via his instructions) to pay him out for the rest of his contract, reportedly $100K. Seriously!!!!!
BA was right in saying that if he wants to leaves, but with no payout (which he won't agree too), no problems. But they way he played on Friday was DISGRAECFULL. Play for Parramatta for THE PRIDE OF THE TEAM. No just for the money. Chris Sandow played with no pride for the team and that in my books unemployable by any NRL team.
If his own players won't acknowledge him after his poor performance on Friday night, then he should be DIGNIFIED and tell Parrarmatta that he's walking away and doesn't want any servenence payout. But no, he wants money for bad performance and also to leave early so we can pay him for playing for any other side!!!!!! Parramatta should no longer be paying money for former players to play for other sides (NRL or not). BA was right in saying that yesterday.
Ask yourself, why hasn't any NRL team offered him a contract? Don't know the answer? Well all NRL teams in the last 4 year (sorry nearly 4) have seen him play and don't want a bar of him. The footy show this morning brought this up.
I'm very glad he didn't take the $650k we offered him over 2 years cause it's another two years of disappointment we don't needs. If you love or like Sandow, look at his ATTITUDE and RECORD and disagree with me, the sweet. But this is the fact $2.2 million for 4 years has played 75 games or so. That about $23g a game (550g per year / 96 games - he's on 75 games so far)
Sorry for my rant, but I've copped it from heaps of Dogs and Manly supporters.

I'm glad you agree FruitMan. The fact I point out to Sandow to supporters is why isn't he being courted by any other of the 15 NRL clubs? We are the only club that offered him a contract - reduced - for 2 years for $650k total. Where's Wayne Bennett offering the Aboriginal Chris "Alfie Langer" Sandow a contract? Parrammatta needs to move away from players that come for just money and only come for the right attitude.
