Not suggesting that Foster would be the player I would necessarily go for, but I do think that when looking at a young player, assuming that because he's not a good defender now automatically means that he'll never be a good defender is pretty lazy thinking, to be honest. I'd guess any coach worth his salt would feel that a young player with quite a few attributes but one major flaw would be a challenge worth taking. He's not the finished article that's for sure, but he's still young enough to learn.

There's worse wingers out there. Ainscough for one.

May be, maybe not. Ainey puts with his heart and soul into it and, like a lot of fans, I'll forgive a lot for a player who does that.

B4c same take ainy over foster any day. Give ainy some confidence and we might see him fulfill his potential. Agree about effort, he has desire and commitment and raw talent not sure foster is bad in defence or if it is just attitude.

Tony gigot is the French player I was thinking of other day, at Toulouse and can play 6, 7, and 9. 9 today but seen him play well at 6 a little similar to summit in that he can be off the cuff but lightning with a good step and reasonable kicking game. Would be good cover and take some pressure off Cain to come through if he is ever ready.

I believe Gigot has signed for an NRL feeder side for next season, I can't remember which.

jamie foster to be offered to bulls : Sat Oct 20, 2012 5:48 pm  

On the sun website it says we will be offered foster. Hope this is true would be good signing, good player and is a good kicker and would replace gale well if injured for kicking.

Outside Lulia I think he'd be decent. Foster is a good finisher and Lulia is the kind of player that can assist Foster. Jason Crookes is a great finisher and look how much he benefited from Lulia.

As for goal kicking, we'd have Gale, Sammut and Foster.

Assuming we get money for Kop-out Craig, think we should spend it on a prop. If we're going to get two or three more props in, lets do it properly. Think we should sign a big name prop and maybe two others on loan. Then we'd have five props.

Comments like this from you have always been predictable - now they're just tiresome!
