‘I can’t say how grateful I am’: Two halves whole again as DCE, Foran reunite

Kieran Foran and Daly Cherry-Evans have picked up where they left off on the Sea Eagles’ training paddock.

www.smh.com.au

Heart warming story I got no doubt where ever foz featured he make a difference

The article says that "There have been a fair few owners of the Manly No.6 jersey since Foran played his last game with Cherry-Evans against Cronulla at the end of 2015." Lets have a look at who have worn the Manly #6 since then.....

There have been 14 players who have started games at 5/8 for Manly since then - Dylan Walker, Pita Godinet, Jamie Lyon, Matthew Wright, Api Koroisau, Blake Green, Cam Cullen, Lachlan Croker, Trent Hodkinson, Tom Wright, Kane Elgey, Curtis Sironen, Cade Cust, Josh Schuster.

100% Foran should start at 5/8. We have not had another dominant half who can help steer the side along side chez since Foran left. Green was ok, but Foran will help balance the side out enormously. Shuster will get his chance, no doubt.

 

[Tragic Eagle]

There is no way Kieran can play 80 minutes week after week. To attempt it will see his season finishing early. Head must rule the heart. Schuster is our long term solution.

 

[Terry Zarsoff]

I see Foran as a catalyst player.

If he stays fit enough for long enough, he will help energise both the forwards and backs.

I hated the way he acted on the way out in 2015, but now that he is back he is one of ours again.

May he do ‘a Ben Kennedy’ and give the club another 2-3 years of quality service, in the process joining Manly’s 200+ FG club.

Some decent research would have gone into that. Well Done V8

That's one of the best comments I've seen about the return of Foran!
(But as you say, depends on how long he stays fit)

 

[Mark from Brisbane]

I think he's destined to be our utility to start the year. And against popular opinion I'd even go as far to say that Cust might not be in our 17 to start the year as Schuster will he #14

That’s my call as well!!

 

[MissKate]

Schuster will be someone else’s 5/8 if we don’t treat him right

 

[pjayz]

If we lose Schuster for this busted up player we deserve the spoon

Having a former champion player who - if injury free - is top shelf ahead of Schuster is one thing. Having Crocker in the 17 ahead of Schuster is an entirely different matter. Schuster is a versatile and immensely talented player who could rotate in the backs or forwards for his debut year if need be. He just needs to be in the 17 somewhere. The six will be his in time, if not this year then next year.

Bouncing back: Stats show Foran still all class when he avoids injury

Returning Sea Eagle's stats show he's still all class.

Well who’d of thought that years later we’ll still have this thread going AND have the said player back.

Must say I hope he absolutely smokes it in 2021, and that he escapes injury for the year because if he does it might go a long way to seeing us contesting the 8 rather than the bottom 4.

Good luck young fella.

Foz is the only reason I'm excited for the 2021 season.. still full of average players, injury prone fullbacks (and zero backups) and the only difference I see to last year's sh!tfight is we FINALLY have a legitimate 6 to partner DCE for the first time since... Well... Since foz..
If he can stay on the park, this 1 factor is the difference between missing or making the finals this year

I hope , really hope , he stays fit.

I hope , really hope , he stays fit.

Same here mate... Kids a class player, he makes every team he plays in 10 times more dangerous... If he can stay fit, we are in for a solid year... If him and turbo manage to stay fit, we are easily top 3-6

Yes agree with that , damn shame about Turbo though !!

 

[Nimmo]

A very sad evening when we embarrass the greats like Jones, Eadie, Fulton, Gibbs, Beaver and Lyons - those pretenders should hang there heads in shame.

Geez, out indefinitely? Shoulder gone again. Is this a 1 year contract?
