Forearms you would usually train with back because deadlifts, chins and rows will give you a good mass workout. You could then follow that up with wrist curls or whatever you do for a final burn.
Also you may struggle to get enough rest for your chest doing it on saturday and then monday. The back routine wouldn't be so much of a problem, but I would avoid deadlifts twice a week as the recovery period is much longer for them. I wouldn't keep up this type or routine for a long period of time, it may lead to overtraining over a period of 6 weeks or months.
You avoid part of this problem by rotating, but it could be further avoided by putting your rotating day on friday and legs on saturday. This will ensure more rest and an even amount on a weekly basis.
