Titans Elite Academy Update

Yes, he was shown on NRL on Fox last night playing for Souths.

Wonder why Canberra didn't pick him up... Souths Logans are our feeder club, then again we got plenty of young at the club...

Yeah but any as good as sandow he is only 17 and playing q cup might of slipped under the radar of canberra

[Social Loafer]

If he is as good as people are saying he is, I certainly hope he didn't slip under the radar (parden the pun)..

I'm not sure on the exact arrangement we have with Souths-Logan, maybe it's more to do with financial side of things..

Although we did get William Zillman from there ...

[Titanz01]

nah his da man, his a nice fella

[Darren Lockyer]

I don't think the raiders got a chance to see him before the titans snatched him up

[DIEHARD]

Article in today's courier about the Raiders targeting QLD for players. Haven't fully read it yet, said they try to target QLD because it is hard to pull players away from Sydney.

I think the more clubs targeting Queensland the better, although thankfully we now have three NRL clubs but we need more IMO, not now but 10-12 years from now. My point is Im glad a lot of scouting eyes are being cast on QLD so we don't lose any potential players.

And let's hope the Titans get the cream of the crop.

Looks like Titans are really building up with some quality youngsters.

Wasn't sure where to post this. But apparently Chris Sandow had a great game for AIS versus BARLA.

A user on totalrl.com called derwent described him as....

Aussie stand-off Chris Sandow is as good a player as I've ever seen at that age. Absolutely fantastic, has pace, vision, great hands and totally controlled the game. He's just signed for Gold Coast Titans and will no doubt get even better. Remember the name !

[DeeGan]

Been saying this for the past 12mths

The same will be said for Shannon Walker in the not too distant future. Sandow is our future halfback for the mighty Gold Coast Titans :guit:

[DIEHARD]

Those two are some amazing talent, we are lucky to have them.

[Future Star]

Chris Sandow is a future rep player.

Read the latest about our young stars in this thread about AIS belting Barla.

Here is a snippet.

Leading the way was brilliant Souths Logan Magpie and
Marsden State High talent Chris Sandow, who scored three
tries playing at five-eighth for Australia.

His man-of-the-match performance began with an artful kick
feign out wide, opening a gap for him to dive across the
tryline.

Sandow then put centre Peni Tagive into a hole on halfway,
backing up on the inside and showing exceptional speed to
finish in style.

Amazingly, Palm Beach Currumbin schoolboy Shannon Walker
also had enough time to post a hat-trick before halftime,
including one blistering effort over 80m.

Both Walker and Sandow are contracted to NRL newcomers the
Gold Coast Titans.

Shannon and Chris both scored hatricks!

[Future Star]

^ WOW!!!!!!!!! WOOOWWWWWW!!!!!

These guys are going to be stars of the NRL - and will keep the starting side on their toes

[philstorm]

Chris Sandow will be in the Australian team in the next 4 years.

Mark my words!

[Titan_Matchu]

Very exciting future talent the titans have secured two young Queenlanders that look to have a bright future and were the stand out players of the tournament.

Shannon Walker possibly a future Karmichael (comparing the two's ages and abilities)

Chris Sandow sounds like he might be playing first grade as early as next year if Prince or Presto get hurt which a lot of people were worried about, what would happen if Presto or Prince get hurt? well here is the answer Chris Sandow.

Can't wait the Titans will be making finals next year for sure all they have to do is give young players an oppurtunity.
