Just get him to "retire" like Peter Wallace and give him another role in the club, running water during games, training the kids to run the tee to the kicker, other clubs make up bullshit roles, I'm sure we can.

I would have him as a genuine mentor for the halves. I honestly think JMK and Frawley improved a lot playing under him.

Foran wouldn't be any good as a hlaves coach, rather just banish him from the club.

I agree. He may have the footy smarts but too much baggage with personal issues and underworld figures. Don't see him as a good influence to young kids. Can't be compared to Peter Wallace in my opinion.

Toe and wrist. When will his knees, hammies, groin, back, and shoulders be better?

I honestly think the club needs to ban any of these organizations from press conferences if they continue to make crap up with no factual basis. If they're so keen to make up fiction, why do they deserve to be present when they can pick up real information. It's the shotgun method of journalism. If they make 100 guesses maybe one or two will hit the mark. Anyone that actually pays to buy a paper these days needs their heads read. Go to a bookshop and buy a work of fiction that isn't trying to masquerade as truth.

I used to try my best to keep up with the goings on at the club through the media. But now if I try to stay in touch with club news through the media it would make me a pretty misinformed individual. Once upon a time journalists would lose their jobs for having such a low strike rate because people aren't paying for fiction. Now the standards of the media have dropped so low that they seem to give zero shits as long as they put any story into circulation. It's kind of a toss up if the fact that people will believe the media highlights the fact that society is growing less intelligent or if it's just that the level of saturation of rubbish articles has just lowered peoples expectations for the media to provide honest articles. But either way I refuse to give any weight to stories that don't have direct quotes to indicate that it has a base element of truth.

Can anyone answer this?

If he quits being a player, and we give him the rest of his contract money as a "halves coach", would his contract be deducted from our cap?

If it is, the board is fucking stupid not to do it.

I'm sure the NRL would find a way to stop it from happening. It could be easily argued that Foran should still be under the cap as a player as he was signed as a player and we are only doing this to make cap space which is unfair.

So why the fuck won't they do that?
Sorry I worded that wrong I meant it would count on the cap. Anything where he still gets the full amount of that registered contact with NRL will count on the cap except if he gets the medical retirement.

Can't argue with that.
