Sure, just like last week where he set up/created 4 tries, too bad Averillo bombed one and made a line break that also should have been a try but there was no one in support. We should be so lucky that all of our players aren't as "past it" as Foran.
Yes but 6 great games a year doesnt do anybody any good. If he cant play a full season and win us a comp.
The only thing against Foran is his injury record. On ability alone he's one of the best five-eighths in the NRL.
Plainly you have a prejudice against Foran, you only see what you choose to see. When the facts don't support your preconceptions you simply ignore them, for example last year he played 14 matches and was easily our best or second best player in at least 11 of those. Of course I know your response, "well the rest of the team is crap so being the best doesn't mean much". Surrounded by better quality players, particularly a couple of strike players would only make him better. This year in 8 games it's been much the same, 2 tries, 3 forced drop outs, 5 try assists, 3 line break assists. Should have been more of all of them if he had decent support around him. Last week alone 2 try assists were missed because of Averillo's inexperience and no one backing up his line break.

If Forans worth a mil a season then Elliot might as well increase his asking price to well over 500k
100% correct, i have said all along foran is in the top 5 halves in the game. He runs our team, the other current halves are leggless without him.
Mitch Moses started as a running five-eighth/fullback and has now developed into a top class halfback because he was given an opportunity to shine.
Top 5 five-eights yes, top halves as a whole he's not.
We'll get a preview of him in the 9 jersey this week. Hopefully Baz is watching
1. Keary
Foran was picked over Johnson for NZ in the off season. Keary and Munster 100%. I'd only say the others due to Foran's injury record.
Johnson has been close the form half in the NRL this season. Wighton led his team to a grand final last year and Walker's been twice the player Foran has over the past 3 years. With or without injuries, if you could sign any half in the league for next year, you'd take one of those 5 before Foran. He was an amazing player but its been about 6 years since his done anything in the game.
I'd only take Keary and Munster over Foran if we're not including injury records which is what I said in my previous post. Wighton's in a very good team (so is Walker, Foran hasn't been in a competitive team for two to three years). His transition from fullback to five-eighth was massive for the Raiders. If you're watching our games you'd know Foran is doing a lot for our team and is one of our best players every week he takes the field. Foran being picked for NZ over SJ is hard for you to argue against.
i believe he is
Johnson playing like the 7 even though he's wearing the 6
Fake news!!!
