This is a bizarre topic in my opinion. Next year Foran will be either half or 5/8. He won't be lock unless (a) we are stricken with some inter-galactic virus that wipes out the whole forwards packs in NRL, 20's (and reserve grade if we have one), PLUS (b) we have magically signed some extra halves.
I also refute the suggestion from some that he has disappointed this year, or has suffered second year syndrome, or that his form can be mentioned in the same breath as Daniel Mortimer. He has been rock solid all year, despite at times carrying injury. He may not have 'starred' or cut opponents to ribbons but he's been one of our most consistent players. Given he's in a key position, playing with a halfback who is also inexperienced, and given he's still only played 20-odd matches, he's been nothing less than excellent.
