If I remember rightly Barry Eaton broke that record not long after that whilst playing for Dewsbury.

Probably on a full size pitch too, unlike HP.

| Again last night Foster had a top game. Not only his goal kicking, which was spot on again, but his kick offs put Leeds under pressure every time, and led to a couple of mistakes. His drop outs too are as long as I've seen from a Saints player in a long time. He was solid in defence and always seems safe under high kicks. He may not be the flying winger that some people want, but he adds a huge amount to Saints overall game.

He also did a nice kick through which almost gave us a try. I'm glad he is developing that side of his game. Also, I liked the way he ignored Roby for the tap kick on one occasion. That left Leeds a bit non-plussed and showed some initiative. I think Foster is developing into a player who can think on his feet, which is encouraging.
Also, I disagree that he isn't a 'flying winger'. After his chase against the Crusaders I think he has enough pace for a winger. The only downside at present is that he doesn't make many yards when taking up the ball, but that I think is down to his relative size.

He's fast enough, I think we all look back with rose tinted specs, If you make a list of wingers that Saints have had in SL and take away Fosters kicking, he still comes fairly high in the ranking of how effective he is as a winger. Not going to bother right now, but I can name 3 former wingers off the top of myhead that he beats without thinking.
Sean Hoppie, Danny Arnold, Chris smith, Ian hardman ........

Potter said last year that foster has prob come in a year early. On that basis they only expected jamie to be knocking on the door this year as maybe a bit part player. He's now established himself as first choice winger which he's done a great job. I think next year we will see Jamie fill out a little more and put more muscle on, then I think he might start breaking tackles.
He's done really well from the last 6 games last year up to present day and if he sticks at saints for his entire career he'll smash every points record going!

Would that be in kick and clap?

And wasn't that the day after Hazeem el-Masri did one less for Canterbury Bulldogs. The Aussies tried to claim it didn't count because it wasn't in the main league (quelle surprise)
