After 2 spawny wins the man is now heralded as the next wayne bennett in east hull. Of course, if Hull and wire hadn't put their respective cues on the rack at the right time for rovers then he'd be a useless aussie whinger who should be on the next plane home.
The truth probably lies somewhere in the middle
There's something in what you say certainly fans are very fickle.
But I have said from day 1 that Sandercock is a great appointment for Rovers and I have never wavered from that view.
He works so incredibly hard people at the club actually tell him to ease off. He is a 100% hands on coach and all of the players are getting individual guidance like never before.
Even Dobson has improved under Sandercock - he has been asked to take on the line a little more and his 2 tries last night were evidence of the value of that.
The one disappointing area has been the struggles we have had on defence. Loads of work has been put into this but it seemed we might have to wait for next season for it to pay off. But on the evidence of the last 2 games we are getting there now. BTW there was absolutely nothing spawny about Rovers win over Warrington we were by far the better side on the day.
With the increasing emphasis on youth Sandercock is even more important to Rovers. I hope and expect he will be with us for far longer than his original 2 year deal.
