Have lost plenty of players mid season - 1 of my favourites was Ron Gibbs & felt gutted.
He still bled for his Manly mates & went out a winner & a champion imo.
The difference with Foran is he stopped giving to his team, coach & fans long ago after signing elsewhere.....until recently.
Whatever the reason I dont give a rats, but if he delivers on the field again on Friday & the rest of his time at Manly - be cheering him on with the rest of the players.
An important thing to note is earlier in the year the players seemed to fob off both Foran & DCE.
DCE was automatically reinstated to the good books after his long term deal to stay & rightly so.
The body language at the time from the players seemed to show Foran what us as fans could see - no energy , commitment & almost a resentful attitude.
This has changed recently & no doubt should never have gone, as he is on good coin to represent the mighty Eagles....thing is he is back to playing good honest footy that his teammates appreciate which should be great news to Manly fans regardless of liking or hating the bloke.
