I think it was Mr.Brownstone posted a polite explanation suggesting it was a bit more complicated than that. From what I saw he is a very intelligent guy and obviously does care about his kids.
Don’t think I would have posted on that specifically because I don’t know anything about the situation.

Dont let that stop you, it doesnt stop the rest of us.
Yes I was going to add that on that basis I should probably be precluded from ever posting on the forum

Somebody posted a very carefully worded explanation about the family circumstance. The bottom line is Foran is a very intelligent guy and Air NZ must be over the moon to recruit him. I cannot think of any NRL example to match the coup, getting Bennett with Bellamy to assist wouldn't go near.

Bummer for Kieran, Dogs should retire him and get all their cap back. He can unretire later if needed, be surprised if Sam B doesnt do that .

He obviously pushed his body too hard in the Manly years. I remember Des saying he respects him for putting his body on the line every time but his body can't sustain it. On top of his mental health issues it might be time for him to pull the pin. Or if he does come back maybe not as a marquee player (as he is worth nowhere near $1m any more) or head to super league for a couple of years where there will be less pressure. Surely Dogs will be able to get back most of the cap space.

Love him or hate him, it is sad to see any player get an injury, let alone a serious injury.

As soon as he left Manly he went to shit. At the time don't think Manly made a huge play to keep him, wonder if they knew something we all didn't ?

who would know ? but sure as hell he was busted up when he left the Sea Eagles

if I recall that was one of the issues he had at Parra before injury and mental health issues raised its head.

217. KIERAN FORAN
Kieran Foran joined us in 2017 on a one year contract amidst a turbulent time in his personal life. On 17 May 2017 he signed a two year contract with the Canterbury-Bankstown Bulldogs to reunite with coach Des Hasler. Foran played 17 games for the Warriors.
In 2018 the Bulldogs tried to medically retire Foran to free up cap space but instead extended his contract for an extra year.
Foran returned to his first club the Manly-Warringah Sea Eagles on a two year contract in 2021 after being told his services would no longer be required at the Bulldogs.
In May 2022 the Gold Coast Titans announced that they had secured Forans services for the 2023 and 2024 season...

Listening to that interview with Metcalf the other day, he reminded me of Foran. Just the way he talks I thought.
