I am amazed that he is the only number 7 in the squad out of 29. They are kidding! Half backs are not there for kamazees, they are there to organize and talk to the forwards, and he doesnt do that.

Agree about Sandow's missed tackles but I love his kamikazee style! Strong team scott but I like Talanoa…future rep player in my view.

Scott’s Likely Team – South Sydney 1 Rhys Wesser 2 Jaimie Simpson 3 Junior Vaivai/Beau Champion 4 Colin Best 5 Nathan Merrit 6 John Sutton 7 Chris Sandow 8 Dave Taylor 9 Isaac Luke 10 Roy Asotasi 11 Michael Croker 12 Eddy Pettyborn 13 Sam Burgess Interchange 14 – Luke Stuart 15 – Scott Geddes 16 – Dave Tyrrell 17 – Ben Ross Scott Says: Lack a talking general as both 6 and 7 are quiet on the field, but boast arguably the best pack of forwards. Sandow is the NRL’s worst defender and coach has to re-invent himself after retirement as head coach. South Sydney Rabbitohs Ins: David Taylor (Broncos), Ben Ross (Sharks), coach John Lang, Sam Burgess (Bradford, UK Super League) Outs: David Fa’alogo (UK Super League), Craig Wing (Japanese rugby), Eddie Paea (Sharks NSW Cup), Michael Greenfield (Dragons), coach Jason Taylor (sacked) I will cover every team but this is how I see Souths in 2010.

A lot will come down to the halves and fullback. If sutton can play as well as he did towards the end of last year and Wesser can stay injury free they will be a real chance. But I think it will come down to Sandow. Great as a rookie in 2008 but struggled with the 2nd year syndrome last year. He'll need to fire if the bunnies are going to be top 4. Mick

His running was impressive but his front-on defence was even better. You've to hand it to Russell Crowe, he's an excellent talent scout. This is my best South's line-up next season: 1. Wesser 2. Merritt 3. Best 4. Champion 5. Talanoa 6. Sutton 7. Sandow 8. Asotasi 9. Luke 10. Stuart 11. Taylor 12. Burgess 13. Crocker 14. Pettybourne 15. Geddes 16. Ross 17. McPherson/Clarke/Simpson I may have missed a rising star that the Rabbitohs fans may point out. But this squad has talent across the park and if they are not top four contenders then John Lang should finally give it away. Steve: In my view he was the best forward on Saturday night.
