Quote: Dux "I've not seen as many matches as I'd like to this season, but I don't think I've seen Foster put a foot wrong yet. He might not have much pace, but he's a good finisher, a handy kick returner, he's got good hands and a brain as well. Goal kicking aside, I think he's in on merit. After catching State of Origin this morning though, I must say it would be nice to have a winger somewhere within a country mile of the standard they seem to be churning out over there.'"

He's safe, he has a habit of taking a ball out of the air in difficult situations, he also tends to be in the right place at the right time to cover breaks and kick throughs.
I don't think he has the physical extreme to be a top class winger (pace of strength), but, given he used to be a centre and therefore must have some ball handling skills, so would like to see him get a run at full back sometime where he can show those talents off.

I agree - that seems to me to be the position to which he's most ideally suited.

My one tiny issue with Foster at FB is that when the ball comes bouncing through he seems to want to take it with one hand. If he could avert himself from doing that I'd have no problem with him there.

I think he's got potential to be pretty good fullback. He's very safe on kicks and has a very very positional mind for such young lad that suggests it's natural but my only concern is he can't really beat a man. He's not got great pace to run round teams, he's not big enough or strong enough to bust tackles.

The fact he is great finisher suggests his best postion is wing but if he could start beating men I'm sure he'd be quality fullback.

Royce's comments about players not easing themselves back in "the players that are coming back cannot ease their way back in – they have to get back into the game and whack into it at 100 miles an hour." sound as though it could be aimed at Eastmond, after his pretty poor displays on return from injury. Would suggest to me that if Lomaskell are fit, they will get the nod ahead of Eastmond.
