That's what I thought.

I think Foran has played almost every week in that comp hence it is a bit odd for someone to claim he is struggling in the third tier.

I watched some highlights of the NSW Cup and thought Foran looked sluggish at hooker but quite lively at 6. If his form is good enough to keep two of Keyes, Barthau and JWH on the sidelines, then he'll have done OK. If not, as noted, we are well stocked at 6/7.

I think i'll trust Joey Grimas judgement, rather than Jean Crapdouze.

Here here, JC is a pain. He tries to hard to appear clever and his preaching irritates. He is a very naughty boy. I wish he'd run along and take his ball with him!

I am hopeful William Barthau can come in and do a really good job for you.

His Dragons chances have been limited and even with a bit of player turnover expected this winter, he didn't look likely to get into the team.

Ironically, his best performance I remember for Dragons came at Twickenham Stoop about three or four years back.

So he has shown form in the capital.

Was very good I thought at the Hive this year too Jimmy.

I had clean forgotten he appeared in that one.

But he crossed the line for a try as well.

Up there with one of the worst tries we've conceded this year. Caught a rubbish pass from dummy half off his toes and waltzed in untouched from 10 metres.
