I don’t think he will leave. Just wait to see this play out

 

[ManlyTragic]

Oh well schuster manager will be happy!

Just sayin’

 

[SeaEagle21]

Foz has been great for us and his body has held up surprisingly. Schuster was always next into that role so the tough call had to be made at some stage.

Can’t keep everyone unfortunately but life goes on.

Hope we can send him off a winner!!

 

[Frogz]

Nonsense,

Panthers let go of Capewell, now Kikau and Api

Souths Reynolds and Gagai

Storm Finucane and Addo Carr, Smith next Year

So what...none of them struggle with salary cap, do they? We do.

Ha what?

Why do you think they let those players go?

 

[Snake]

Foran gone 100%. Shattered. 400k deal.
We’ve had to upgrade Haumole, Garrick, Keppie, Paseka and even Saab from their original deals and that’s where the squeeze has come from.

Upgrading Saab and losing Foz. This hurts.

Mate we are letting big money players go also and can't afford Foran...

 

[HK_Eagle]

Ohh no. We can't lose Foz after preparing Shu for the front row over the last couple of months.

"RUN FIFIT-YA!!!"

I thought the same 47.
Fifi will be soiling himself.
Massive sprays all over the place.

 

[Mark from Brisbane]

So 2023 back to no 5/8 again!

And despite what his manager reckons there’s no way Jelly Josh is playing that role as big as he is now.

It’s very frustrating I must say.

 

[SeaEagleRock8]

If Foran can manage to stay on the field for another 20 or so games this season we'll have nothing to complain about. Newsflash, nothing lasts forever. I'd have preferred one more year but big deal, we have options.

 

[ALinda]

This news has quelled the excitement for tomorrow's game. The only way it makes it palatable is the Tits offering 2 years, as opposed to Manly's one, which is fair enough.
To lose Foz, arguably our best player this year, added to Jelly Josh supposedly replacing him (whenever he's actually on the field), I'm shattered...

 

[SeaEagleRock8]

added to Jelly Josh supposedly replacing him

Fans can be so cruel, lol

 

[ALinda]

Fans can be so cruel, lol

Yeah I got Jelly Josh from @Mark from Brisbane on another thread and thought I can't think of anything more appropriate at the moment lol

Edit: It was actually @Rackets who came up with Jelly Josh - credit where credit's due

 

[Ryan]

Foran and Walker leaving is a worry at the moment.

Munster?

Forget signings mate. Apparently we are strapped even though Walker, Foran, Taupau, Taufua, Boyle are gone, Chez is taking a paycut and the caps gone up.

So I guess this is as good as it gets for us given we'll be less depth wise next season.

When will we get a full time CEO or CFO in to try and get some momentum here ? Can I also say Crusher, and possibly Fulton might need some help in recruitment ?

 

[double hoops]

Oh Wow.

 

[Ryan]

We have one of the most youngest squads in the NRL. We have to upgrade them when they start playing well to keep them or they leave. All our money will be top ups.

These young guys are consistently getting their arses handed to them. Do we really want to be upgrading what already isn't working ?

Something's just not adding up.

Who said we're strapped?

That's right.
