Can we all just take a moment to appreciate how frigging good this bloke was today!!

Even the commentators on Fox said it's the best game they've seen him play in years (and he did so with a calf cork for 60 minutes).

The no fear attacks right up to the line, and taking 3-4 big blokes over the line with him, he seems hungry.

THIS .. Ladies and Gentleman is the Kieran Foran that everyone who had faith in him, knew was lurking beneath the injuries.

Now the scary part is he can get much better than today too.

Forming links with Napa and CHN and I'd say Meaney out the back real soon, he's going to really fire for us moving forwards.

He was good last week as well. He can't play if the forwards aren't setting the platform for the likes of he and Lewis.

Even going back to last year before his season ending injury, he wasn't even playing too badly. We found out he was playing injured for most of it, and to be fair the likes of Sharon and co just weren't setting the platform for him to do his thing.

He was great, but it’s a long season ahead and I’m still not convinced he won’t finish it with a walking stick.

It’s about time he took the leadership and let Lewis play his own game.
Maybe that was pay game plan to see if Lewis can run the team, then gave Foran the go ahead for the tigers game.

Absolute champion, put his body on the line time and time again in both attack and defence. Had no regard for his health and well being and gave his all. The real Keiron Foran has stood up every game this season but today was his best performance yet.

I have always liked your opinions but this thread is won of your best. GO KIERAN I think he has only started.

So you’re happy that he’s doing his job? Standards here have dropped so low we are happy when our marquee big money signing finally delivers. This performance was 12 months too late really. I hope he keeps this form up for the sake of the team. He’s still not worth $1m a season. Our best option would be to try and sell high on Foran to get out of his ridiculous deal if there’s a team willing to pay his salary.

Guys got great talent and we saw a display for the ages yesterday. Like others have said though, I feel it’s a matter of time before he gets injured and out for a few weeks and that will hurt us big time right now so really hope he can stay healthy

Foran was superb yesterday. He deserves plenty of praise for his toughness as well. I like that he put himself at dummy half to manage the pain of his injury and stay on the field.
Scored a great try and was fantastic in defense.

Indeed Mr I..
Foz was all grit and class!!the way he helped us to our first win, Couldn’t have asked for a better effort/performance from our man!! He stepped up and showed us all he still has it , and played as we know he can. Very impressed and very important for our team in 2019. Wish him ALL the best for the remainder of the season.

Thanks Foran, top bloke !!!

im not sure anyone ever doubted his ability (skills).. everyone concerns were:
a) injury and his ability to a play a full season
b) this size and value of his contract..

and So far as far as I'm concerned,,, 1.5 games won't erase those concerns..

100% agree. Let's hope he is injury free and consistent through this year.

Definitely his best game for the club. His combination with CHN was great.

Here's hoping he plays like that for the rest of the season...

Great post Mr I: I don't think anyone has ever doubted his ability on this forum, against the tigers he was easily the difference, no way we would have won without him, yesterday.
However me and many others are still concerned with his health, if he can stay on the field and play the way he did, with a little tweaking of the team and bench, I'd bet on us making the 8.

He was awesome yesterday but looked like he picked up a knee injury,I dont recall anyone on here doubting his skill level or passion but weather his body was up to the grind of an NRL season and the jury is still out on that one.
