Quote: bewareshadows "Hi from the Saints board.
We are also having a debate over Foster, whether we should recall him or not. When he came on to the scene for Saints he was a breath of fresh air. The kicking was one thing, but also a player with the confidence to take a high ball in traffic and not make a Meli of it.
His defence was decent and he was our top try scorer last year.
But part way through last year the wheels seamed to have fallen off, he still could score tries and kick goals, but he seamed to get the wobbles under the high balls and defensively got pulled about.
I think that is why he got pulled from the first team, whilst he may not be the biggest or fastest winger he still had a knack of getting over the white wash.
I saw him in the Hull KR and Wigan games and he seamed to show his two sides, very decent in the KR game and pulled about by the wigan attack.
How would you rate him defensively in his month with you????'"
I think scoring tries as a winger for Saints maybe a little easier as you have the creative players to put them on a plate for him. We struggle to score points and the wingers may well have to work harder for their scores and do that little bit more than just put the ball down. We have only scored more points than the bottom 4 teams and Wakefield this season, yet until last week's horror show were in the frame for top 4......
