Foster is a decent young player. No world beater, but certainly a better player than he's being made out to be.'"
I'm sure Makinson scored the best try of the Grand Final last year and has never put a foot wrong since wearing a Saints shirt and I for one would see him in the side over foster any day of the week |

If he recovers his confidence then I see no reason why he can't get back into the first team. He'd need a good start because everybody will be scrutinising him for one reason or another and that's not good. If we can get behind him no matter what and he learns from his errors then why not.

Well, given that the head coach of a reputable local amateur rugby league club was the one who showed me how to coach it then yes, I suppose no further evidence is needed.
Idiot.

I hope Foster comes good if for no other reason than I can't stand players being massively overestimated/underestimated from one week to the next (it seems that Nathan Brown has mysteriously let go England's answer to Cameron Smith according to some Leeds fans' view of Shaun Lunt).
Seriously in what universe did Makinson score the 'best' try in the GF last year? Shenton's was far better from a Sts point of view - lovely team effort. Not even mentioning any of the Leeds scores.

Foster showed great potential last year when he was playing with confidence, looked safe under the high ball, scored some great tries (one vs Leeds at Headingley springs to mind) and is a fantastic goalkicker...
For some reason he has lost confidence this year and as a result has found himself as our 4th choice winger behind Meli, Gardner & Makinson. With Meli expected to be leaving at end of season, I think a loan spell to a lower SL club to give him game time at SL level could do him good confidence wise then hopefully next year he will be ready to come back and challenge for a regular place with Makinson & Ade.
For me he has the potential to be a great winger and maybe he got a bit above himself after last season and needed to be dropped, but I wouldnt expect that we have seen the last of him just yet
