That's 350K more than we got for Snake and Skivvy.
Walker's PM XI smashed leg got Manly a big fat zero 2 years agoThat's 350K more than we got for Snake and Skivvy.
In my experience the biggest wingers in life are blokes. Little girls are pretty resilient.Because AFB and JakeT are only going to miss a couple of games,Foran will miss the whole season.Theres been plenty of” bitching like little girls”on here about similar issues so not sure you should be too critical of the Dogs

Wow, hoisted by my own petard.So if the blokes are the biggest wingers and little girls are pretty resilient ... who are the biggest whingers?
Only because Fiz is refusing to retire and is quoted as wanting another 3 year contractSouths can “medically retire” 2 players for existing issues for a combined $2.5m outside the cap yet the Dogs can only get $350k for an injury that happened in an NRL recognised international.
Ironical isn’t itSouths can “medically retire” 2 players for existing issues for a combined $2.5m outside the cap yet the Dogs can only get $350k for an injury that happened in an NRL recognised international.
And they got Andrew Hill because of toddlesCry me a river, why should they get special treatment.
Sorry I forgot Toddles was their CEO.
Most probably true, he had something to prove after he left as he was so good for us.Does anyone else get the feeling that the reason Foran is refusing to retire and wants to go on is because he has had such a bad time of it since he left Manly that he feels like he has something to prove??
Kieran Foran unfortunately is one of those players who falls into the "the worst thing he ever did was leave Manly" category.
Most probably true, he had something to prove after he left as he was so good for us.
His body was starting to fail him before he left us and he refused to modify his playing style.
As a result he started to suffer more and more and more injuries to the point he’s now so injury prone nobody would sign him for decent money.
Ironically I doubt that has ever been his motivation, his dad is loaded, after all.but financially at least Foran has definitely done OK for himself since he left Brookvale.

He doesn't have anything to prove, I think he just loves the game.
If you already have some mental demons - which it seems he did - and then have one serious injury after another, that is a big challenge, so credit to him for continuing to fight his way back.
I worry a little for his wellbeing when he does retire, though, I hope he finds something positive out there.
Bulldogs call for review of rules after Foran salary cap appeal rejected
Andrew Hill accepts decision on compensation but calls for reviewwww.nrl.com
Canterbury CEO Andrew Hill has called for a review of the NRL’s compensation policy for players injured on representative duty after being informed the club's salary cap relief for Kieran Foran would be limited to $350,000.
Foran, whose contract is reportedly worth up to $1.2 million this year, underwent shoulder surgery after being injured playing for New Zealand in last November’s Test against Great Britain at Eden Park and is expected to be sidelined for most of the season.
