Kieran Foran, worst signing in the history of the game...

Surely they will look for a medical retirement for him now so that they can make another shocking signing for next year.

I'm sure Josh Reynolds would love to go back to the Dogs...

Such a great player though. When not injured. He's a good example of how a half can have too much courage. People criticise the Jamie Sowards and Adam Reynolds of the game for not taking on the line enough. Foran and his sticky taped body show what happens when you run at the line too much.

Luke Keary I fear is heading the same way.

At $115k per game, its hard to argue really.

Prior to that it was probably Tony Williams so the Dogs have been on a streak.

this dude got injured and had some serious mental health issues.


it’s not like he got on tv in America for pissing in his own mouth ... while being the highest paid player at the club

Caused major sponsors to walk
Then sued the club for unfair dismissal and somehow won

There's been a few stinkers lol. At least Foran can blame injury. I still dont think DCE has earnt his money at Manly, Cleary at Penrith, Milford at Broncos etc etc.Once you hit the $1mill a year you had better be leading your team tp playoffs.

On that point I think clubs should be able to put players on injured reserve if they are out for 50% or more of the season and have their salary, or a significant % of it, come off the cap for that year.

Honourable mention to Barba to Brisbane. Bris fans were in a fapfest, truly believing a premiership was imminent. We all know how that ended up.

Brisbane and any high priced back for the last Decade.

Pretty easy to win an unfair dismissal case when the CEO completely ballsed up the process.

Ash Taylor to the Titans has been a much bigger disaster.

As has been mentioned, at least Foran has the excuse of injuries.

Taylor cost just as much if not more, on a longer contract, and has been abject pea hearted puss.

Honourable mentions to Tyrone Peachey, Bryce Cartwright, Shannon Boyd, Nathan Peats, and Leilani Latu.

Titans, oh dearrr.....
