well?

Only if he has a talentectomy

you really think he's [ithat[/i good? just playing devil advocate here

i voted no and its still 50/50

Depends on whether he can put some weight on and how much that affects his strength. He isn't strong or quick, so I can't see Brown wanting such an outside back with neither of these qualities.

I think if we were going to see him again this season he would have featured in the Oldham game or at least made the squad, but next season could be different under NB.

Depends who else we have in the 3/4s next season... He certainly has no future in a Saints shirt until he sorts out the howlers that have crept into his game (and gotten progressively worse with experience bizarrely) over the last 12 months. He's still got a chunk of contract left and I can't see anyone else taking him off our hands on the kind of money we're no doubt paying him now so we may be stuck with him whatever for a while.

let's hope so...all he can do is kick goal's..if he was half as good at playing rugby as he is at posing he'd be a world beater.

I think you are doing him a disservice, whilst I agree there have been errors of late, Meli, packs them in and still gets game time.

His problem has been his wing suffered a week after week error ride through our poor patch a month or so ago, and to close the hole he got the chop, it seems to have worked.

He has pace he has the skill, the ball round the back try for example, but is he going to be Saints standard, i'm not sure, these days you can't get into a team in SL for attack and kicking alone, you have to have great defence too.

Two more Darren Alberts please.

In all honesty I don't see what he offers us, he's not super fast, no footwork, no power and suspect in defence and high balls.

I said last year that i thought he was going to be the next setven tyrer and i stand by that now. As one fan has said take away his goal kicking and hes actually just a very average rugby player and you guys have looked a lot more solid with gardner in the team instead. If i was a saints fan i would be more excited about what young makinson is going to give the team over the next ten years

Why? When has Makinson ever done anything of note?

Foster is a decent young player. No world beater, but certainly a better player than he's being made out to be.

Strangely I think that makinson is talked about more because of the mistakes he doesn't make rather than any positive contribution. He certainly seems to try.

As for Foster he undoubtedly has some talent some of the tries he scored were very good. IF he can improve his mistakes I don't see why not.

To some degree he has been the vicitm of poor team performances coupled that with at times a lack of support from his centre leading to defencive errors. Then this has had a bad effect on his confidence.

I don't think we have seen the last of him but when he next gets his chance there can be no howlers as Swift is looking a good alternative.
Jamie is lacking in confidence and maybe a loan spell away could sort that out? playing in the U20 is no good or testing enough?

Loan spell would be best for Jamie, Under 20's is not going to develop him anymore, a club without mirrors in the changing room!! LOL
